00:00:35.040 Today's guest is a comedian and an actor out of Staten Island, New York.

00:00:42.400 He was once a young king, and now he's a medium king.

00:00:47.220 He's about to take on a world tour in some select cities.

00:00:52.660 You know, this is the first time we've sat this long and gotten to really talk.

00:00:56.700 I'm very fortunate for his time.

00:00:58.900 He's an exceptional young man.

00:01:00.740 Today's guest is Mr. Pete Davidson.

00:01:09.280 Thanks for coming by, dude. 0.98

00:01:22.360 Dude, thank you for fucking having me. 0.95

00:01:24.420 It was awesome. 0.98

00:01:25.480 Oh, yeah.

00:01:26.600 I only watched you, and I listened to this podcast.

00:01:29.800 What are you talking about, Joel Osteen?

00:01:32.380 No, I listened to your podcast, and I listened to this podcast called How Did This Get Made,

00:01:39.120 where they just kind of talk about movies.

00:01:41.300 Oh, yeah.

00:01:41.720 People – wait, wait.

00:01:42.620 I know whose show – that's not Doug –

00:01:44.920 It's Manzoukas and Paul Scheer.

00:01:47.900 They just talk about, like, movies that, like, were ridiculous, and then, like, just the math of how they got made.

00:01:54.340 Paul Scheer is so cool.

00:01:55.840 He is really cool.

00:01:56.960 Good guy.

00:01:57.640 Is he?

00:01:58.220 Yeah.

00:01:58.440 I never known him that much except just seeing him in movies and TV. 0.95

00:02:02.940 Manzoukas is maybe, pound for pound, one of the fucking funniest human beings. 0.95

00:02:06.880 Really? 0.98

00:02:07.380 It's amazing.

00:02:08.840 Manzoukas, huh?

00:02:09.440 Let me get a gander at him.

00:02:11.760 Oh, he's all the ethnicities, huh? 1.00

00:02:13.380 He's a fucking Gaza strip of a man. 1.00

00:02:15.360 Like, dear God, I'd be afraid to open my car door if I were him, and I wouldn't even know which way it was coming from. 0.99

00:02:21.760 He's one of those guys that's looked like that forever, and now he's the appropriate age to look like that,

00:02:27.200 but he'll also still look like that forever.

00:02:29.220 Do you know what I mean?

00:02:29.760 He looks like somebody off that Muslim version of Guess Who. 0.99

00:02:32.520 Remember that game?

00:02:33.920 You know what I'm saying?

00:02:34.760 Like, and no offense, Mr. Manzoukas, if you're as funny as he says you are, you're okay with some of this.

00:02:41.700 They should have a Muslim version of Guess Who. 1.00

00:02:45.360 Dude, they have an Asian version? 0.98

00:02:47.300 It's just all the same guy, oh, man.

00:02:49.240 Do they really?

00:02:50.100 Do they have one for every country?

00:02:51.260 I'm sure they do. 0.99

00:02:52.400 It's fucking the way they do it now. 0.99

00:02:54.980 That's what I like about it is you learn a little bit. 1.00

00:02:57.120 Oh, yeah.

00:02:58.060 Yeah.

00:02:58.700 Well, they have a Guess Who, too, for like Twinks. 0.91

00:03:00.800 I know there's one that's like one of these guys doesn't mind meeting other guys or whatever.

00:03:05.640 You're like, Jesus Christ.

00:03:08.820 This is crazy.

00:03:09.880 Dude, you're going on your first international tour.

00:03:11.640 Is that cool?

00:03:12.060 Pete Davidson, good to see you today, man.

00:03:13.560 Thanks for having me, bro.

00:03:14.520 Yeah, thanks, dude.

00:03:15.720 I'm stoked.

00:03:17.520 I've never been anywhere unless it was for like work.

00:03:21.900 Right.

00:03:22.500 But I've always wanted to try.

00:03:25.060 It's just like I can't believe that anybody would come see me over there.

00:03:27.680 Yeah.

00:03:28.040 You almost need to go there to believe that.

00:03:29.780 Yeah. 0.82

00:03:30.060 I'm kind of like dumb where I'm like, no one knows me in, you know, Australia. 0.82

00:03:35.520 Yeah. 0.86

00:03:35.740 I've never been there before.

00:03:36.960 I don't have friends there.

00:03:38.020 Yeah.

00:03:38.240 But I'm excited.

00:03:40.620 Are you taking anybody with you?

00:03:42.300 Is it only you?

00:03:43.080 It's me and my friend, Joey Gay, who does shows, been doing shows with me since I'm like 18.

00:03:50.200 So.

00:03:50.560 Oh, nice.

00:03:50.900 Bring him up.

00:03:51.300 Let me get a picture of Joey Gay. 0.99

00:03:52.420 Oh, Joey Gay is fucking hilarious. 0.98

00:03:54.420 I may have met him, but I can't remember. 0.98

00:03:56.220 He's been around forever.

00:03:57.360 He's just one of those dudes that just always destroys.

00:04:00.260 Oh, there he is.

00:04:01.300 Yeah.

00:04:01.740 He's also been my friends, you know, since the before time.

00:04:05.140 Oh, I know him.

00:04:05.560 Yeah. 0.98

00:04:05.700 He's a monster, dude. 1.00

00:04:07.280 He's fucking great. 1.00

00:04:08.360 I know him. 0.99

00:04:09.280 He looks like a little bit like Chris, like almost like Chris DiStefano and Charlemagne

00:04:12.720 had a kid a little bit in that picture.

00:04:15.480 No, he's a real good dude.

00:04:17.640 Oh, that's great.

00:04:18.460 Yeah.

00:04:18.820 Where are you guys headed to?

00:04:19.680 I know you're headed to Perth, I saw.

00:04:21.380 Perth, Sydney.

00:04:23.400 Oh, yeah.

00:04:24.180 Another one.

00:04:26.220 Maybe Melbourne?

00:04:27.660 Yeah.

00:04:28.140 It could be wrong.

00:04:28.880 I have no idea.

00:04:29.600 I, you know, when you get a tour schedule and you're super intimidated and you just go

00:04:34.020 day by day, but I know we're doing it.

00:04:36.100 Oh, here they are.

00:04:37.200 Singapore.

00:04:37.940 Whoa.

00:04:38.540 Yeah.

00:04:39.700 And what's causing all that?

00:04:41.080 There's a lot of good street food there.

00:04:43.020 That was just Burke.

00:04:44.500 I don't know if, you know.

00:04:45.640 We have the same agent.

00:04:46.300 Yeah, we have the same agent.

00:04:47.020 So, you know, he'll be like, yeah, you know, you can fit this one in there.

00:04:50.100 You know, it's on the way.

00:04:50.960 There's a layover over there.

00:04:51.780 Why don't you parachute into the Azores?

00:04:53.600 I got a hostage facility outside of Guantanamo.

00:04:57.280 Well, I'll sell 200 tickets in right now.

00:04:59.780 They owe me.

00:05:00.620 They owe me.

00:05:01.420 All right.

00:05:02.240 Whatever.

00:05:03.180 Yeah, they always do owe him.

00:05:08.260 I got it.

00:05:10.040 Dude, that's going to be great.

00:05:12.160 And you're going to Riyadh.

00:05:14.680 So how do you guys feel about this Saudi Arabian Comedy Festival?

00:05:16.940 There's been a lot of like talk about this recently.

00:05:19.060 Are they limiting what you guys can say?

00:05:22.020 Have you heard anything about it yet?

00:05:23.340 That one I haven't heard much about.

00:05:25.660 Singapore, I had like a laundry list of stuff.

00:05:29.680 It was pretty much my whole act.

00:05:31.460 So I don't know.

00:05:33.920 I don't know what to do.

00:05:35.100 I'm like Googling old sets from when I was like 20.

00:05:38.100 I'm just going to do the classics.

00:05:40.220 Dude, do some of Jim Gaffigan's bits.

00:05:41.740 That's what I do if I'm in a tough spot.

00:05:44.020 Just do, I mean, or just do Nate's stuff.

00:05:46.080 Just very evergreen, clean stuff.

00:05:48.540 Have you ever had that problem?

00:05:50.540 Yeah, dude.

00:05:51.660 Oh, yeah.

00:05:51.980 I have it a lot.

00:05:52.580 I mean, I have a lot where it's like you have to sift back through.

00:05:55.320 One of them was like you could talk about sex, but like not like in a dirty way.

00:06:00.700 Right. 0.99

00:06:01.160 And I'm like, what the fuck does that mean? 0.99

00:06:03.120 Yeah. 0.98

00:06:04.140 So. 0.65

00:06:05.020 I guess let's try to have a conversation about sex, but not in a dirty way. 0.97

00:06:08.840 Oh, man. 0.98

00:06:09.280 I had some.

00:06:10.020 I was. 0.95

00:06:11.340 I had some sex recently. 0.92

00:06:13.160 Yeah. 0.99

00:06:13.420 How'd it go?

00:06:13.960 Well, I thought it went pretty good.

00:06:16.080 You know, I was on a full stomach.

00:06:18.100 So.

00:06:18.920 Did you both blast?

00:06:20.080 Oh, hold on.

00:06:22.620 I need to leave this conversation.

00:06:25.180 This isn't Singapore approved, I think. 0.69

00:06:27.900 And they'll beat you with that stick over there. 0.99

00:06:29.720 Remember, they killed that honky over there like 25 years ago. 1.00

00:06:33.540 Remember that guy?

00:06:35.940 Christopher Reeves or whatever.

00:06:37.360 Who was that guy?

00:06:38.180 They killed Christopher Reeves in Singapore.

00:06:41.200 I think.

00:06:41.740 Or maybe it's not him.

00:06:42.620 Who was it?

00:06:43.960 This is a huge thing when I was a child.

00:06:46.800 They beat this guy for doing something over there.

00:06:49.100 What was he doing?

00:06:50.400 Oh, this guy.

00:06:51.200 Michael Faye.

00:06:52.020 There he was.

00:06:52.920 Oh, man.

00:06:53.440 Tina Faye's brother.

00:06:54.200 All right.

00:06:56.220 This is why she had to win.

00:06:57.680 She didn't have a choice.

00:06:59.340 The person was famously caned in Singapore as Michael Faye, an American teenager in 1994.

00:07:03.420 Faye was sentenced by a Singaporean court to six strokes of the cane and four months in jail for acts of vandalism, specifically for spray painting and damaging cars.

00:07:11.760 Oh, he didn't do anything.

00:07:12.980 As well as stealing road signs.

00:07:15.080 Yeah.

00:07:15.300 I mean, that's fine.

00:07:17.640 Oh, that's just a little bit of Newsome foreplay right there. 0.95

00:07:20.200 That's nothing, dude.

00:07:21.540 That's sad.

00:07:22.640 It's sad.

00:07:23.340 It's sad in general, but just for like spray painting cars and stealing road signs.

00:07:27.780 I feel like they should just, you know, cut your hand off or something.

00:07:30.700 Well, I think this guy's pretty lucky, dude.

00:07:33.080 Some places, I guess they still have a lot of that.

00:07:35.400 But no, what I've heard, dude, is at that Riyadh festival is that they're like, you know, there's a lot of people that say people are getting paid by this Middle Eastern money.

00:07:43.360 Right.

00:07:43.700 You know, and that they can say this or they can't say that or that they're over there.

00:07:47.440 They're going to try to influence you guys in order to speak certain ways.

00:07:51.080 Do you, are you part of that conspiracy theory or is that nothing you're on?

00:07:54.440 I've heard there's subreddits of like, I think all these people are in bed with that.

00:08:01.580 I just, you know, I get the routing and then I see the number and I go, I'll go.

00:08:06.300 Okay.

00:08:06.940 Yeah.

00:08:07.680 You know, and also, you know, there's part of me that's just like, you know,

00:08:13.480 I've been getting a little bit of a flack just because like my dad died 9-11.

00:08:17.600 So they're like, how could you possibly go there?

00:08:20.800 So your dad died during 9-11.

00:08:22.480 He died in one of the buildings?

00:08:24.100 Yeah.

00:08:24.380 He was a fireman.

00:08:25.360 They were actually the first truck there.

00:08:28.360 There's like this very, this is how shitty my luck is.

00:08:32.220 Also not to make this all about myself, but.

00:08:35.460 Well, it's an interview of you.

00:08:36.840 So if you do, it's okay.

00:08:38.380 I'm at 9-11, but yeah, it's all about me.

00:08:41.820 There's a very famous shot that you see every 9-11 besides the obvious ones, but they were

00:08:47.780 the first truck over the bridge to.

00:08:50.680 So the 9-11?

00:08:51.780 Yeah.

00:08:52.020 So the front page is just like, Pete's dad.

00:08:54.780 I'm like, oh.

00:08:56.100 So.

00:08:56.720 He's waving out the window?

00:08:58.000 Yeah.

00:08:58.240 He's like that.

00:08:59.100 So, yeah, they were the first truck over there and pretty much the whole house, the whole

00:09:03.500 house, you know, died.

00:09:04.860 Oh.

00:09:05.620 Which is sad, but also, at least he died with his pals.

00:09:09.320 You know, it's kind of.

00:09:10.440 They all went in as a group, huh?

00:09:11.700 That's his truck.

00:09:12.120 No, that's the picture.

00:09:13.120 You see the truck on the bridge?

00:09:14.300 Oh.

00:09:14.820 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:09:15.540 My dad's in there, dude.

00:09:17.720 I wonder.

00:09:18.160 God, man.

00:09:19.300 Sorry.

00:09:19.620 Well, you know.

00:09:21.060 That's something Shane Gillis would say, dude. 0.98

00:09:23.040 Pretty gay, dude. 0.99

00:09:23.960 He's in there. 0.99

00:09:24.640 It's pretty gay. 0.99

00:09:25.420 I don't know. 0.57

00:09:25.960 Yeah, dude.

00:09:27.980 Yeah, my Down Syndrome brother's in there.

00:09:30.300 Yeah, I feel like that's what Shane would say the whole time.

00:09:33.060 That's your dad right there?

00:09:33.880 That's my pops, dude.

00:09:34.960 Dude, he's, you're mech, you're part, you're mech Latino? 1.00

00:09:38.440 No, no, all white and Jewish and Irish. 0.93

00:09:41.200 Oh, wow.

00:09:41.840 And a little Italian.

00:09:42.520 Yeah, but I feel like our family looks mixed, but we're not. 1.00

00:09:45.480 Well, it's crazy that he died in 9-11 and also part of him is accused of doing.

00:09:49.880 That's the craziest part. 0.99

00:09:52.660 So I think that's where you're like the, you're the fucking, you're the Bermuda Triangle of 9-11. 0.98

00:09:59.720 Well, it is a little weird that they were the first truck there. 0.98

00:10:02.060 That is true.

00:10:02.840 It's almost like he was too ready to go.

00:10:04.700 Yeah, it's the old Irish hello, huh? 0.99

00:10:06.220 Yeah.

00:10:06.500 Yeah, that's the Irish part, I think.

00:10:10.280 Oh, man.

00:10:11.020 He's a handsome guy.

00:10:11.860 What was he like? 0.95

00:10:12.980 He was fucking hilarious, man. 0.80

00:10:14.240 He was, my memories are, you know, few and far between because I was seven, but I just 0.98

00:10:19.140 remember laughing a lot, him being pretty jacked and smoking a lot of cigarettes and driving

00:10:24.880 a Subaru Impreza.

00:10:26.580 That's all I remember.

00:10:27.920 Ooh.

00:10:28.520 Always had a big smile on his face.

00:10:30.120 But my favorite thing is, I don't know if you have, I'm sure you do, people come to your

00:10:34.720 shows and they're like, I knew, I don't know, your dad or I knew, I know your cousin or whatever.

00:10:39.260 A lot of people lie to me about that just to come backstage because they know I can't

00:10:44.700 be like, you know, sure or whatever.

00:10:47.880 But I don't want to hear about it.

00:10:48.820 Of course you want to hear a story about your dad.

00:10:50.020 Of course.

00:10:50.540 I could always tell who is telling the truth because the second they start talking, they

00:10:55.580 have this big smile and their eyes kind of light up and they call him Scotty, which

00:11:01.200 is what his friends call him.

00:11:02.320 So I always could tell.

00:11:03.640 And everything I hear is always really sweet.

00:11:05.900 I'm sure they like keep the horrible things away.

00:11:08.580 Yeah, Scotty met on the Jets.

00:11:09.940 Yeah.

00:11:10.460 He did.

00:11:11.120 He's a big Jets fan.

00:11:12.480 Oh.

00:11:13.320 Yeah.

00:11:13.620 But you lost your pops too.

00:11:15.480 You were young too, right?

00:11:16.640 Yeah, I was 16.

00:11:17.360 My dad died.

00:11:17.760 He was just older though.

00:11:19.260 But I think like, yeah, just, yeah, I mean, losing your dad when you're a kid is kind

00:11:25.540 of tough.

00:11:26.120 I think it's, obviously it's tough.

00:11:28.040 I think it's, it is funny.

00:11:29.960 As you get older, you want to know the different stuff about him, you know?

00:11:33.060 Yeah.

00:11:33.360 Like, was he a pervert or whatever?

00:11:35.040 Yeah.

00:11:35.060 What did he like?

00:11:35.580 Because it's still more information, you know?

00:11:37.260 Like, did he sleep in his car or whatever, you know?

00:11:39.540 Like, what did he do, you know, for fun?

00:11:41.260 I think it's worse at your age though, because you could fully understand the scope of what

00:11:46.020 happened.

00:11:46.500 And you're at such a pivotal age in your life where you're growing and becoming a man.

00:11:50.780 I was really young. 0.98

00:11:51.920 So I didn't even really know what the fuck happened. 0.97

00:11:53.920 And it hit me later. 0.95

00:11:55.120 Like, when I was in college, I was like, oh, I'm pretty angry about this.

00:11:58.980 Like, it'll show up more and more as I get older, because you understand, like, that's

00:12:04.680 really sad to happen to a kid.

00:12:06.260 But I feel like your age, and forgive me if I'm wrong, but like, that's like, that's

00:12:10.660 like visceral. 0.99

00:12:11.400 That's, that's some tough shit. 1.00

00:12:13.320 Yeah. 1.00

00:12:13.560 I think, you know, my dad was so old.

00:12:15.600 My dad was set, you know, my dad was born in 1910.

00:12:17.720 He was an old man.

00:12:18.480 And so what?

00:12:19.280 He was 70 when I was born.

00:12:20.980 So he was 86 at that time, right? 1.00

00:12:22.840 Holy shit. 0.97

00:12:23.500 So it wasn't like I had like this, you know, dad that had this energy and, you know, I 0.99

00:12:30.760 had this kind of dad that was like a sleeping in the distance a lot or like, you know, all

00:12:35.260 inadvertently causing shit to have, like falling asleep in the carpool, he'd come pick me up 0.87

00:12:39.940 and he'd fucking doze off out there, you know, and, and he, my dad had this, he was 0.98

00:12:46.080 always buying cars off these brothers that lived around the corner, right? 0.99

00:12:48.600 And so he had, one time he had this Cutlass that had some 22s in the trunk, some fucking 1.00

00:12:53.520 bangers in that bitch. 1.00

00:12:55.300 And he would just listen to like Rush Limbaugh and shit, like on with both bass. 1.00

00:13:00.840 Cranked up. 1.00

00:13:01.540 Oh, bro.

00:13:03.020 And like, it would be like Paul Harvey and just like these old commentators and he would 0.99

00:13:10.080 fucking just doze off in his car. 0.93

00:13:12.860 And whenever he dozed off his, he was old, his eyes would like leak and they would just 0.99

00:13:16.920 like water would kind of pour out of him because you're getting old, you know, your gaskets

00:13:20.600 get bad. 0.98

00:13:21.280 And so he was just fucking just shedding water weight. 0.99

00:13:24.720 And I was just fucking like, what is going on? 0.98

00:13:27.740 So you were a little prepared. 0.99

00:13:29.140 You were a little prepared.

00:13:30.140 I was prepared that things weren't going to go well.

00:13:32.500 Right.

00:13:32.960 You know, so my dad kind of was like a driving 9-11.

00:13:35.720 He like kind of pulls up in his own little, like I would have been awesome if that, we

00:13:42.240 got to put my dad's car behind that fire truck.

00:13:45.140 Superimpose your dad's car in there.

00:13:47.720 Yeah.

00:13:48.080 He was always a 9-11 dude. 0.99

00:13:49.740 Every time he came in and it's something you'd have to get his fucking car doors didn't 0.99

00:13:52.900 work. 0.99

00:13:53.080 You had to climb in the fucking wind. 1.00

00:13:54.620 Everything was a fucking nightmare with him. 0.99

00:13:56.720 And the teachers would always look at you like, don't get in there. 1.00

00:13:59.680 Right.

00:14:00.060 With your dad.

00:14:00.800 Yeah, but that's your parent picking you up like, but then there's little things like

00:14:05.240 did you have some nice mementos of his?

00:14:07.800 I have actually, I have his, his wedding ring that I wear all the time and I have his, it's

00:14:14.840 actually super fucked up, but I have his badge, like his chain, his badge and they found that's 0.93

00:14:20.780 how they, you know, because everybody was pretty burnt up. 0.98

00:14:24.060 So that's how they knew it was him. 1.00

00:14:25.800 And I have it and I just keep it in a safe because like with my luck, I'll lose that shit. 0.98

00:14:30.600 But, um, I have like a couple of those things and I have, uh, his, uh, his fire, his like 0.98

00:14:35.720 jacket and like other set of pants.

00:14:38.040 And I, I put them like on the wall.

00:14:40.140 I like framed them, but then I put them, I took them down though.

00:14:42.680 Cause like sometimes I'll be feeling good and then I'll see that and I'll be like, oh,

00:14:46.020 yeah.

00:14:46.500 You know, it's like a weird, it's a weird thing.

00:14:48.740 I remember my mom has, it's like everywhere you look, it's like, you know, my dad, like, 0.99

00:14:55.940 and it's fucking, it's kind of on a condom. 0.99

00:14:58.540 You're like, Hey, that's a lot. 0.99

00:15:01.360 Sorry.

00:15:01.800 That's crazy.

00:15:02.680 I was just trying to make you laugh.

00:15:03.760 No, it did make me laugh.

00:15:04.940 But it's kind of haunting where you're just like, I would like the option.

00:15:08.160 Like if I want to go down memory lane, I can, but like, you know, just like have your dad

00:15:13.160 staring at you everywhere.

00:15:13.920 You don't want memory lane just hanging out on the wall being like, Hey, do a lap, you

00:15:16.740 know?

00:15:17.420 Yeah.

00:15:17.860 Yeah.

00:15:18.920 Oh, wow.

00:15:19.400 Do you have any stuff for your dad's?

00:15:20.920 Do you have the speakers?

00:15:22.060 No.

00:15:22.480 What do we have?

00:15:23.380 We have, I have his passport for whenever he moved to the U S where's he from?

00:15:29.540 He's from Nicaragua.

00:15:30.520 He came down here when I think he was like, let me see, I guess he was 12 or whatever.

00:15:36.600 Um, that's wild.

00:15:38.340 It was pretty wild.

00:15:39.040 I don't know anyone from there.

00:15:40.080 That's crazy.

00:15:40.800 I don't know.

00:15:41.400 You know, it's like a real place.

00:15:43.340 It's like a place you live on my space when you're in high school.

00:15:45.760 Oh, Nicaragua.

00:15:46.480 Yeah.

00:15:46.920 Yeah.

00:15:47.300 Or Schenectady, New York.

00:15:48.580 Oh yeah.

00:15:49.720 Kalamazoo, Michigan.

00:15:50.480 Dude, I remember when I saw Kalamazoo in the airport one time, people were going there

00:15:54.180 one day. 0.96

00:15:54.540 I couldn't even fucking believe it. 0.96

00:15:55.820 I thought they were like traveling in with them Dr. Seuss novel or something. 0.97

00:16:00.040 I was like, tell Cindy Lou who I said, what's up, huh?

00:16:02.660 How old is she? 0.98

00:16:05.380 You feel me?

00:16:06.380 BLM, dude. 1.00

00:16:08.000 Um, but yeah, I think as you get older, stuff like that's interesting.

00:16:11.920 Were you able to find pieces of fatherhood and other men as you got older?

00:16:15.800 Yeah.

00:16:16.160 I think that's inadvertently what I was doing.

00:16:19.680 Uh, I wasn't like very conscious.

00:16:21.260 Like, I need to find me a dad, you know?

00:16:23.040 Yeah.

00:16:23.460 But, but I, as I look back though, you know, and that was what was cool about getting into

00:16:28.980 comedy.

00:16:29.580 I was 16.

00:16:30.760 So everyone, the youngest, uh, comedian friend I had was like, I don't know, 29, 30.

00:16:37.280 It was like Che, DiStefano.

00:16:39.700 Oh, that's great.

00:16:40.640 You know, all those guys, Giannis, Nate, um, Soder.

00:16:44.360 And like, it was all dudes that were older than me that like, you know, obviously there's

00:16:48.740 not, there wasn't a lot of other younger dudes, but I really, I really looked up to them.

00:16:53.960 And like, I just see Joey, I do shows with Joey all the time.

00:16:56.980 He's like in his fifties.

00:16:57.840 So most of my friends I find are like, you know, 40 and up.

00:17:01.180 Cause I think that makes me feel, uh, safe.

00:17:04.840 And also just like, there's this for some form of like big brother sort of thing.

00:17:11.440 And yeah, somebody looking out for you.

00:17:12.700 But also when you go through a tragedy that young, like your brain is older.

00:17:16.480 Like, I always felt like, um, I was older, um, like in school where like when that happened,

00:17:24.320 you know, kids would be like, can I like have a pool party?

00:17:27.560 And I'm like, no, like, I want to smoke cigarettes and cry.

00:17:32.380 Like, I mean, it's like, it's not that, that like innocence is kind of taken away really

00:17:38.640 fast.

00:17:39.080 And that's why I got into standup.

00:17:40.820 I'd watch, you know, Burr and Chappelle and, um, you know, Rodney's my favorite.

00:17:47.320 So I think that's why I like veered towards laughing a lot.

00:17:51.040 Yeah.

00:17:51.540 Yeah.

00:17:52.140 I'm just a sad dude.

00:17:53.260 Like, I feel like most of us are pretty.

00:17:54.660 Were you a pretty sad dude, you think?

00:17:56.060 Yeah.

00:17:56.380 I think there's.

00:17:58.200 You always get pigeonholed as this not sad dude, I think.

00:18:01.760 Yeah. 1.00

00:18:02.040 I'm like, what the fuck guys? 0.99

00:18:04.520 I'm like, I'm for everybody's always like, oh, that guy just. 1.00

00:18:06.920 And that's where some of the hatred comes. 0.99

00:18:08.500 He just, he got, I don't give a fuck attitude. 0.99

00:18:10.180 I'm like, no, I'm, I'm miserable. 0.99

00:18:12.680 I want to be that dude too.

00:18:15.100 All the dude you guys are talking about.

00:18:16.940 I want to be him.

00:18:17.860 I don't even know that guy.

00:18:19.260 I look at pictures.

00:18:20.200 I'm like, who is this guy that everybody's talking about?

00:18:23.060 You know, like, it's not me.

00:18:26.240 But yeah, I grew up super duper sad.

00:18:30.100 There's, my mom shows pictures.

00:18:31.300 You could always tell what pictures of me when I'm little before and after my dad passed

00:18:37.640 because the eyes are different.

00:18:39.080 Oh.

00:18:40.260 Like, the eyes are just like sad.

00:18:42.940 The eyes have it.

00:18:43.820 That's what they say.

00:18:44.580 Yeah. 1.00

00:18:45.360 Damn. 1.00

00:18:46.020 I feel like you're a, people think you must be like the happiest silly dude ever, but I 1.00

00:18:49.960 feel like you have some layers. 0.97

00:18:52.380 Oh, yeah, dude.

00:18:53.840 I'd like to be in a wheelchair a lot of times.

00:18:56.260 You know?

00:18:56.540 Just cause? 0.99

00:18:57.200 Just to fucking show them. 0.99

00:18:58.680 I'll show them. 1.00

00:18:59.340 That's my attitude.

00:19:01.960 Show other dudes in wheelchairs? 1.00

00:19:03.440 I'll fucking take that bitch right out into a fucking interstate. 1.00

00:19:05.300 I'll show them. 1.00

00:19:06.520 Hit me. 1.00

00:19:08.240 I'll go to heaven right now, motherfucker. 1.00

00:19:09.940 Do you ever play truth or, not truth or dare, but like a kind of Russian roulette with 1.00

00:19:13.640 yourself where you're like, if I die this way, I'm supposed to.

00:19:16.800 Ooh.

00:19:17.300 Let me think about that.

00:19:18.860 Like where I got a motorcycle for a little bit.

00:19:21.200 You did?

00:19:21.900 Just for a bit.

00:19:22.660 And then I got into an accident.

00:19:25.200 Why just for a bit?

00:19:26.340 So, so it was kind of like a, if I go this way, like I don't, I was young and I was like, 0.99

00:19:31.320 I don't give a fuck. 0.98

00:19:32.180 Like I'm rock and roll, dude. 0.99

00:19:33.940 But then I didn't realize like you can get in a motorcycle accident and it not be your

00:19:38.540 fault.

00:19:39.200 Like I didn't realize you can get hit by other cars.

00:19:41.480 Oh yeah.

00:19:42.080 Yeah.

00:19:42.300 Yeah.

00:19:42.420 You don't think about that.

00:19:43.180 I don't think about it.

00:19:43.760 You're just like, I, it's all in my control, but some dude, some dude clipped me and then

00:19:48.100 the bike kind of fell on me.

00:19:49.440 It was pretty mid, but I was like, oh, you could be enough.

00:19:53.680 Yeah.

00:19:53.760 I don't want to die by someone else.

00:19:54.960 I want to do it.

00:19:55.960 Right.

00:19:56.720 Yeah.

00:19:57.460 Yeah. 1.00

00:19:57.800 I want to go out on my shit. 1.00

00:20:00.160 So yeah. 1.00

00:20:00.800 Motherfucker. 1.00

00:20:01.400 Yeah. 1.00

00:20:02.180 I'll die, bitch. 1.00

00:20:03.260 Watch me. 1.00

00:20:03.900 Yeah.

00:20:04.100 You don't think I'll die?

00:20:05.240 Yeah.

00:20:05.480 Watch.

00:20:06.160 Yeah.

00:20:06.540 Dude.

00:20:06.780 I'll say this.

00:20:07.380 I've had a girlfriend before where I've been like, I like, I knew I should leave her,

00:20:12.500 but I'm like, I'm not leaving her because she'll find somebody that actually likes her.

00:20:16.420 Yeah.

00:20:16.840 Yeah. 0.98

00:20:17.280 That's how fucking much I was like miserable, dude. 0.99

00:20:20.160 You ever have a, I didn't even think that. 0.98

00:20:22.480 One of my rebuttals to a girl leaving me was like, you've done so much work.

00:20:27.440 You've done so much work on me.

00:20:29.100 Like, it's like, you got me ready for someone else.

00:20:33.400 That's like not fair.

00:20:35.000 Because now I'm just going to be all this good with someone else.

00:20:38.120 Yeah.

00:20:38.480 Yeah.

00:20:38.580 Like, you taught me so much.

00:20:40.740 Yeah.

00:20:41.020 At least show up for the graduation.

00:20:42.400 Yeah.

00:20:42.840 Come on.

00:20:43.640 You know, you put so much work in.

00:20:45.820 You know, I'm back and you know, I never left, baby.

00:20:48.720 Prize picks.

00:20:49.640 Bing, bong.

00:20:51.100 That's why I'm at.

00:20:52.360 Prize picks is the best place to win cash while watching sports.

00:20:56.440 If you like to fire on sports.

00:20:59.120 If that's not your thing or you can't handle it, that ain't for you, king.

00:21:02.740 But football season is fully underway and there's no better time to join.

00:21:07.960 The app is really easy to use.

00:21:10.200 To create a lineup, all you have to do is pick more or less on a few players' stats.

00:21:16.800 That's it.

00:21:18.160 Prize picks is in more than 40 states, including California, Texas, and Georgia.

00:21:23.660 And with promo code Theo, you can play $5 and get $50 in lineups.

00:21:29.620 It's heartbreaking to say it, but with the Saints playing as tragically as they are and

00:21:35.000 possibly being sold in a few years in a package deal with the Pelicans, I am choosing some

00:21:41.760 of the Buffalo Bills this week for my players.

00:21:43.840 I'm picking more than two and a half touchdowns for Josh Allen, and I'm picking more for Keon

00:21:49.540 Coleman.

00:21:50.640 That's where I'm at.

00:21:52.440 Those are my picks.

00:21:53.340 You can also tail me in the prize picks app, and now you can even follow me on prize picks

00:21:58.200 at Theo Vaughn.

00:21:59.720 Prize picks.

00:22:00.660 It's good to be right.

00:22:02.800 You know, Bitcoin hit an all-time high of $124,000 in August, which is wild considering

00:22:11.040 that it was trading around $60,000 last year.

00:22:15.120 When I need more Bitcoin, because I'm in, I'm in.

00:22:18.920 I go to MoonPay.

00:22:21.180 Yep.

00:22:22.020 MoonPay is always the first app that I open because it doesn't force you to buy a whole

00:22:27.000 coin, and it's super easy to use.

00:22:29.780 Now, I do want to say that MoonPay is one of the biggest partners of our show, which we're

00:22:34.720 grateful for, and they've also allowed me to accept my payment from them in Bitcoin.

00:22:41.700 Yep.

00:22:42.280 That's how I'm doing it.

00:22:43.360 Instead of U.S. dollars.

00:22:45.040 I'm planning to hold and save that Bitcoin in my MoonPay account.

00:22:51.100 The Bitcoin will sit in a digital MoonPay wallet that nobody can access except for me.

00:22:58.740 Yep.

00:22:59.460 The U.S. dollar continues to fluctuate in value, so by making this decision, I'm diversifying

00:23:04.980 my portfolio and hopefully earning more from our partnership than I would have otherwise.

00:23:09.700 Remember, while MoonPay makes buying crypto straightforward, it's essential to do your

00:23:15.080 own research and understand the risks involved.

00:23:18.560 Crypto trading can be volatile, and you could lose your investment.

00:23:23.080 MoonPay is a tool to facilitate your transactions, not a source of financial advice.

00:23:28.040 Trade responsibly.

00:23:30.460 Did you ever get that bad off with your emotions, or were you always able to have some awareness,

00:23:35.280 you think?

00:23:35.600 Uh, I've, I've, I'm good now, but I've, I used to dip in, in that.

00:23:41.140 I was very like, um, growing up, I, I wanted to die to be with my dad.

00:23:47.920 Really?

00:23:48.240 Very badly. 0.57

00:23:49.000 I want to, so I tried to, this is so fucking embarrassing, but I get what I said really 0.73

00:23:53.180 when you said that also, of course. 0.91

00:23:54.860 No, yeah.

00:23:55.260 But I, I like, I tried my first time when I was like eight, I tried to like drown myself.

00:24:00.840 And then my mom, like, this is so dark, but like found me in the pool seeing what I was

00:24:07.120 trying to do.

00:24:07.580 And then she took me to like a, a psych ward when I was like eight.

00:24:12.100 So I've, I've struggled with that.

00:24:14.340 And then I kind of got out of it, uh, when I first started, I would say right around when

00:24:18.840 I got SNL, um, uh, cause I didn't have many friends growing up and it was, it was my fault.

00:24:26.500 Like I've said this before where like I was suffering and I was super weird and I was like,

00:24:31.120 uh, you know, very visibly hurting, but you know, kids don't know that that's what you're

00:24:36.680 going through.

00:24:37.180 They just think you're weird.

00:24:38.080 Like they don't have this scope of, did you feel like a lot of like, were like thoughts

00:24:42.420 and stuff were trapped inside of you kind of, or what did you feel like you think?

00:24:45.160 Yeah, it was like on a hamster wheel of just like I have, cause I have OCD and, uh, you

00:24:51.000 know, manic depression.

00:24:52.400 So like, it's just, that's a horrible combo. 1.00

00:24:54.540 And then you start doing drugs and it's like, good luck, you know, you're a fucking slot 1.00

00:24:58.420 machine of depression and the worst stuff. 0.98

00:25:02.100 Um, and then, uh, I w I would like revert to that, uh, when I got sad, but then when I

00:25:08.340 started doing standup, I kind of was like, uh, I found like a group of weird friends and

00:25:12.640 like, uh, artists are cool and they, they understand like sadness and like a lot of

00:25:18.760 them are like, um, you know, not afraid to talk about that stuff.

00:25:22.700 Oh yeah.

00:25:23.300 You know?

00:25:23.560 And I, I really like, uh, I was like, Oh yeah, you know, and, and then, um, there's

00:25:28.700 this weird thing. 0.84

00:25:29.300 I don't know if you've really had this cause I know everybody just fucking loves you as 0.97

00:25:33.080 they should. 0.87

00:25:33.520 But I had this thing where like, I came out and everyone really rallied behind me and was

00:25:39.300 like, Oh, this kid, they look what happened to him when he's a kid and now he's doing

00:25:42.380 this and that's super cool. 1.00

00:25:43.800 And it was like all going up and then it flipped and then it was like, fuck this dude. 1.00

00:25:48.940 I don't like this dude. 1.00

00:25:50.380 He, I hate this dude. 1.00

00:25:52.100 And like, we're in the internet age, so I'm reading all that shit. 1.00

00:25:55.700 Oh yeah. 0.99

00:25:56.120 And then it brought me back to like childhood high school, like not fitting in, like again, 1.00

00:26:01.760 low self-worth attached to all that old shit. 1.00

00:26:04.360 Then that shit started to pop back in. 1.00

00:26:06.600 And then that's where I started like doing drugs. 1.00

00:26:08.280 And then, uh, a year and a half ago, I was like, I was just like, I need to want to,

00:26:16.460 I need to be okay.

00:26:18.560 If not all this goes away.

00:26:20.420 Like if like, it can't be for standup.

00:26:23.280 It can't be for this movie.

00:26:24.680 It can't be for this girl.

00:26:26.100 It can't even be for my family.

00:26:27.920 Like I have to want to be okay. 0.99

00:26:30.120 Otherwise all this shit doesn't work. 1.00

00:26:33.460 Fuck dude. 1.00

00:26:34.000 When you say that, it's so scary to me. 1.00

00:26:35.620 It's bro.

00:26:36.080 I don't know if I could every, like, even though I feel like I am, I don't, if there's a big

00:26:40.140 part of me, the truth is I don't know how I would feel if I didn't have somebody else's

00:26:45.420 feelings to base it on, you know?

00:26:47.360 No.

00:26:47.660 Yeah.

00:26:47.820 It's like, uh, if I didn't have how somebody else felt about me to base it on.

00:26:51.300 Yeah.

00:26:51.720 That's, that's how I live.

00:26:53.200 We're, we're, uh, we're people pleasers.

00:26:55.240 Yeah.

00:26:55.560 We laugh at me, please.

00:26:57.480 Yeah.

00:26:57.860 You know what I mean?

00:26:58.420 Like, like watch my movie.

00:26:59.880 Like when I go outside, take a picture, like, you know, and then it, even if you call me

00:27:04.020 a or whatever, we can bleep that out or we can just say that he said it.

00:27:09.080 But, uh, anyway, at least that's like, in the, in the context, that makes sense.

00:27:14.540 Yeah.

00:27:14.740 Yeah.

00:27:15.060 Yeah.

00:27:15.320 Only if it's during pride month and you mistook me for one of your best.

00:27:18.440 Yeah.

00:27:18.800 Yeah.

00:27:19.200 Yeah.

00:27:19.420 Not in like a red.

00:27:20.240 No, no, no.

00:27:20.740 I see.

00:27:20.980 You should stand by that.

00:27:21.900 Okay.

00:27:22.200 Yeah.

00:27:22.380 But, but yeah, you can't, uh, but that's a hard, that's a hard thing to, you're undoing

00:27:29.840 for me.

00:27:30.260 It was like, you know, 25 years of people pleasing and that's why I live, you know?

00:27:34.800 So I had to like learn how to be okay with this.

00:27:38.180 And like, also like a year, year and a half ago, like they were like, it's over, he's

00:27:43.340 done, you know, he's a joke. 0.99

00:27:45.820 Is it the media tabloids, that type of shit? 1.00

00:27:47.320 Yeah. 1.00

00:27:47.720 It was just like, there was like articles that were like, I smoke crack and live with

00:27:50.960 my mom.

00:27:51.500 And I was like, I was like, all right, like, it'd be part of that.

00:27:55.960 Like, not all of that.

00:27:59.420 It's a two bedroom.

00:28:00.400 It sucks when there's like four things in the article that are wrong, but there's more

00:28:06.020 of them. 0.97

00:28:06.200 And you're like, actually, yeah, that's fucking kind of true. 0.93

00:28:08.940 But you know, and I'm in rehab alone reading this, you know, and a lot of my friends, you 0.86

00:28:14.740 know, I would say I still have half of them, but a lot of them, it got to a point with my

00:28:19.720 use and like how I was behaving where they were just like, I love you, but like, I, this

00:28:25.140 is too much.

00:28:25.740 Oh, wow.

00:28:26.520 And when that started happening, it was started happening with people where I was like, well, 0.98

00:28:30.180 I don't give a fuck about you anyway. 0.96

00:28:31.980 Right. 0.96

00:28:32.280 And then it started happening with like people I really cared about. 1.00

00:28:35.720 And I was like, oh shit. 0.99

00:28:36.980 Like it's me. 1.00

00:28:39.140 Dang.

00:28:39.520 You can only go.

00:28:40.280 It's everybody else for so long.

00:28:41.860 Yeah.

00:28:42.320 And until you're like, okay, I get it.

00:28:44.280 And then, you know, that, that was kind of it for me.

00:28:47.600 Was there a day you kind of turned it in?

00:28:49.440 You were like, I'm dropping the rock today.

00:28:52.460 You know, where I'm, where I'm just like, I need to leave.

00:28:55.600 Or were you just like, I'm going to go definitely get some help.

00:28:57.660 Like, or was there like one conversation that kind of cemented it for you?

00:29:00.740 I guess.

00:29:01.340 Yeah.

00:29:01.600 Once you start to see like, man, oh, that person is stepping away from me.

00:29:05.340 God, it must be.

00:29:06.380 Yeah.

00:29:06.600 Cause it's weird.

00:29:07.060 Sometimes you want to make your outside.

00:29:09.440 You want to make it match kind of how you feel on the inside.

00:29:12.020 It's like, that's exactly what you want to leave me because I left me so long.

00:29:16.260 In my mind, everybody left me so fucking long ago that I want, I don't, if you, the fact 0.96

00:29:22.260 that you're even still around here fucking makes me not even respect you, you know? 0.98

00:29:26.420 Yeah. 0.99

00:29:26.740 And like a sick way, you know?

00:29:28.160 Yeah.

00:29:28.240 And there's part of you that's probably like, for me, I was like calling bluffs almost where

00:29:32.440 I was just like, I, I, I self-sabotage blow up.

00:29:36.240 Anybody that's ever actually loved me or cared about me has gotten the worst wrath from me.

00:29:41.140 Oh yeah. 0.99

00:29:41.740 You know, it's few and far between, but when it happens, it's fucked up. 1.00

00:29:45.120 And, but this whole like, fuck you, leave me, like get ahead, leave me. 1.00

00:29:49.680 They started to. 1.00

00:29:51.060 And I was like, oh shit, you're calling my bluff and I love you and I don't want you to 1.00

00:29:54.600 go away. 0.99

00:29:55.060 And then you go into therapy and you're like fear of abandonment.

00:29:58.240 You have BPD.

00:29:59.460 There's, this is why from your childhood, you, you did this and your grandpa did this

00:30:03.200 and now you're there.

00:30:04.060 So like, you got to do that sort of work. 0.86

00:30:06.060 But yeah, it got to that point where people I really fucking loved.

00:30:09.280 And also my mom, you know, my mom's the most supportive person in the world.

00:30:15.600 She's a cool lady. 0.99

00:30:16.580 The best.

00:30:17.340 I mean, like.

00:30:17.800 What's her name?

00:30:18.460 Amy.

00:30:19.000 She's the best.

00:30:19.580 Oh, that's a good name.

00:30:20.220 She never dated.

00:30:21.300 She married a fireman, Amy.

00:30:22.900 Yeah.

00:30:23.300 She's, she's a nurse. 0.99

00:30:24.940 Like.

00:30:25.220 Nuh.

00:30:25.620 Yeah.

00:30:25.980 They met each other in grammar school, like super Staten Island.

00:30:28.660 I want to marry a nurse.

00:30:29.800 And my mom, look how cute my mom is. 1.00

00:30:31.020 She's just a sweet lady. 1.00

00:30:32.300 She never dated after my mom, after my dad died, just raised me and my sister like alone

00:30:37.200 and worked hard and she's been the most supportive ever.

00:30:40.920 And it got to a point where she, she called me, uh, when I was, uh, when I was in rehab

00:30:46.040 and she was like, my biggest fear is that I will turn on the news and see that my son

00:30:51.040 has died.

00:30:51.880 Oh.

00:30:52.280 And she's never been like that, like, you know, cause she's so supportive and just, you know,

00:30:57.460 wants to always have positivity around.

00:31:00.820 Yeah.

00:31:01.200 And she already lost something.

00:31:02.160 She loved it.

00:31:02.920 Exactly. 1.00

00:31:03.520 And that fucking, that killed me. 1.00

00:31:05.600 Oh. 1.00

00:31:06.060 Yeah.

00:31:06.300 So like, I was like, all right, you know, can't die until she's dead at least.

00:31:09.620 Yeah.

00:31:09.840 All right, Amy.

00:31:10.480 Yeah.

00:31:10.920 Yeah.

00:31:11.300 You got it.

00:31:12.100 Like when that lady, when that lady says that to you, look at that lady. 1.00

00:31:15.160 I mean, how are you going to be like, I'd have to be a heartless fucking sociopath to 1.00

00:31:19.600 not get my shit together. 1.00

00:31:20.880 You know? 0.99

00:31:20.980 You're like, okay, this is what I need.

00:31:23.500 Yeah.

00:31:23.740 Oh.

00:31:24.540 Good lady. 0.91

00:31:25.420 Oh, that's cute, man.

00:31:27.160 Yeah.

00:31:27.520 I'm a lucky guy in that aspect.

00:31:29.140 I have a really like supportive, uh, cool family that has never asked me for anything

00:31:34.660 and they should, like they could.

00:31:37.200 And they, a lot of them need stuff.

00:31:38.680 Yeah. 0.96

00:31:38.920 You bought Colin Joseph's shitty boat. 1.00

00:31:42.080 You can't fucking get them some. 1.00

00:31:45.280 Can you imagine being one of my family members? 1.00

00:31:47.680 That's like living check to check.

00:31:49.280 And then you read that.

00:31:52.960 Sorry.

00:31:54.880 Oh, that is so true.

00:31:56.860 Like I have, uh, but I've, I've offered to, I've offered to help and they just, they're

00:32:02.980 like, nah.

00:32:03.900 Like that.

00:32:04.080 Yeah.

00:32:04.340 Some people are like that.

00:32:05.280 And I love that.

00:32:06.380 That's how I am.

00:32:07.420 Here's what I start to realize in my family.

00:32:09.060 I think they're joking.

00:32:09.980 Like they, they don't want you to be like, oh, cause I'm always like, all right.

00:32:17.600 But they want you to be like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

00:32:21.240 Yeah.

00:32:21.720 I, yeah, dude.

00:32:22.360 I think I, even just saying that makes me think I got to help out my family a little bit

00:32:26.260 more.

00:32:29.040 Hey, there you go.

00:32:32.220 I mean, from a good part, clearly.

00:32:33.700 We, uh, it looks a little different.

00:32:38.360 A little more Island.

00:32:39.140 Yeah.

00:32:51.740 Oh, dude.

00:32:52.200 He's awesome.

00:32:53.140 You guys would get along great.

00:34:07.280 That's the dude that was killing all the hookers, man. 1.00

00:34:10.180 That's fucked up. 1.00

00:34:11.460 Yeah. 0.99

00:34:12.100 That's not cool.

00:34:13.940 Um, how long did you stay?

00:34:15.400 I'm trying to think of different.

00:34:16.220 I probably got to go to a place soon and just get some away.

00:34:20.340 I think I've just, I just can't, everything's just been, I can barely kind of keep it together

00:34:24.960 every week.

00:34:25.660 Well, you're also one of the most busy people in the world.

00:34:28.400 I mean, you have like the biggest show out there and, but I don't know if you had this,

00:34:33.300 you have this feeling where you're like, well, if I go away, it'll all stop.

00:34:37.620 Yeah.

00:34:37.980 I just think it's all, everything will be fall apart or I don't know.

00:34:40.500 Or you'll be like alone with your thoughts.

00:34:41.800 And like, I think when you work a lot, you don't have time to be like, what am I upset

00:34:46.500 about in my childhood or like, whatever. 0.97

00:34:48.280 Like, uh, you could take as much fucking time as you like and you deserve it. 0.97

00:34:52.680 You deserve a nice little kickback, relax, do something that like makes you happy. 0.99

00:34:56.780 What makes you happy?

00:34:57.560 Like, what do you like to do?

00:34:59.620 Well, I think some of it's funny that I'll, thank you though for saying some of that stuff.

00:35:02.560 No, it's true, bro.

00:35:03.420 It is true.

00:35:04.100 I think it's hard for me to get that.

00:35:05.460 It's hard for me to like get that into my system, you know?

00:35:08.120 And then to want to do it.

00:35:09.340 I think like, you know, I'm kind of married to work.

00:35:11.520 Like I choose to work.

00:35:12.620 Like sometimes I think about like, I had this girlfriend, this really great girl that

00:35:15.840 I was seeing for years.

00:35:17.000 And I don't know if we're supposed to stay together or not, but sometimes when I think

00:35:19.940 about life or certain things, she's kind of the one that I miss.

00:35:23.240 It doesn't mean we're supposed to stay together, but there was still like a good, good enough

00:35:27.540 connection that was very real that it was like, man, that's her affection is what I miss.

00:35:33.040 Right.

00:35:33.400 Right.

00:35:33.680 And caring about her is kind of what I miss.

00:35:35.280 Um, but I were, I could see myself, we'd go out and do stuff and then we'd come back

00:35:41.020 home and I could see how she would see me across the room.

00:35:43.720 I'd sit down, I'd put my computer on my lap and just start working.

00:35:46.620 Like, doesn't matter if I had 33 seconds, it always went to that, you know?

00:35:50.620 And just, just like a couple of months ago, I started thinking, oh man, that's what she

00:35:54.360 must've seen all the time, you know?

00:35:56.200 Right.

00:35:56.600 It's just someone looking up at someone just not there.

00:35:59.080 Yeah.

00:35:59.640 Right.

00:36:00.100 But, but you are there, but you're just, this is your comfort, right?

00:36:03.520 It's comfortable.

00:36:04.260 It's reliable.

00:36:05.060 I know the return.

00:36:06.180 I know the rate of return.

00:36:07.340 I know.

00:36:07.720 You enjoy it.

00:36:08.440 Yeah.

00:36:08.580 I enjoy it.

00:36:09.360 It's based, if I fail in it, that's fine.

00:36:11.700 It's totally on me.

00:36:12.640 It's all, it, there's no room for any, I mean, there's room for other people in here

00:36:16.680 really, but it's definitely, you know, it's just, you put in,

00:36:20.560 you get out.

00:36:21.140 Right.

00:36:21.800 Um, but so I don't know, like, yeah, I think that's something like, just like

00:36:25.920 that addiction to work, but then I'm getting older.

00:36:28.900 I'd like to have a family, you know?

00:36:30.020 And you're like, well, I don't know how that's going to happen unless I do

00:36:32.700 some things different.

00:36:33.500 And so, um, that's where I'm like, I gotta, I think I gotta just, you know,

00:36:38.400 I don't know.

00:36:39.220 But you're sober too, right?

00:36:41.100 Yeah.

00:36:41.660 This year, this year, this year has been a little, a little, I've had a couple

00:36:45.060 tough moments this year.

00:36:45.920 This past year has been the toughest year that I've had in a while.

00:36:48.540 Yeah.

00:36:48.860 Um, I hear that.

00:36:50.980 But, but like, this is like, you know, drugs for me and smoking weed and,

00:36:57.280 you know, that, that was like, those were my friends.

00:36:59.600 I never did it to go party or like, I was never like, Hey, let's like go 0.93

00:37:03.600 fucked up. 0.93

00:37:04.200 I did it at home pretty much alone. 0.99

00:37:06.180 And I would just watch family guy.

00:37:07.740 Just, it was like a warm hug or blanket.

00:37:10.400 When you get rid of your friends, it's like, what's left.

00:37:12.780 It's like work nicotine.

00:37:15.200 Yeah.

00:37:15.940 Am I supposed to give up those two?

00:37:17.680 Like, it's all I have.

00:37:18.640 Like, I, your body needs to appreciate the friends you just let go.

00:37:25.180 You know, it's, it's, if you let go of too many things at once, like it, it's not good

00:37:29.580 for you.

00:37:29.920 Um, so it's like, I don't know if that's how it is with you, but like, it's hard to have

00:37:33.460 a healthy relationship with like, like my reliabilities right now are like working zin

00:37:38.860 and like working out and taking care of my girl and like hanging out with her.

00:37:43.340 That's like, that's all I have.

00:37:45.200 Like if you pull one of those with, it's like three left, you know, I used to have eight

00:37:49.500 things and now it's like, so it's tough.

00:37:51.960 It's tough.

00:37:53.620 Yeah.

00:37:53.940 I think it's like, I do think there's a lot of stuff there where it's like, I don't want

00:37:57.040 to probably see some of it, you know, or I don't really want to feel like if I don't

00:38:02.120 have a, some girl to text or a date to plan or something in the distance or some work

00:38:07.360 thing, like if I took everything away and I was just with myself, how would I feel,

00:38:13.080 you know, or what would that be like?

00:38:14.520 And it would probably be fine, but I think it's the fear of what would that be like?

00:38:19.820 It's that, it's the hurdle, not the other side.

00:38:21.960 A lot of times for me, you know, it's the same thing that comes with like commitment to

00:38:25.180 relationships.

00:38:25.840 I had the toughest time committing in relationships.

00:38:28.300 I think it's just, it's probably fine on the other side.

00:38:31.940 Right. 0.99

00:38:32.100 It's just fucking stepping over the hurdle sometimes. 0.98

00:38:34.720 Do you think you romanticize the fear a little bit as an out where it's just like in your 0.98

00:38:39.440 head, you're like, no, this is what it's going to be like.

00:38:41.820 And then there's like a fear of like, I do it and that's not what it's like.

00:38:45.940 And then that whole thing is gone.

00:38:48.620 Does that make sense?

00:38:49.900 It's hitting into me.

00:38:50.860 Like, do you think like having that set answer of like, well, if I do that, I won't be able

00:38:56.360 to commit or it's going to go wrong or whatever.

00:38:58.160 Like you're preventing yourself from even trying to do it because it probably is what

00:39:03.940 you need.

00:39:04.840 Right.

00:39:05.500 Like, and you can do it.

00:39:06.660 And there's almost like a, not like you, you don't believe in yourself enough.

00:39:12.280 Does that make sense?

00:39:13.240 Yeah.

00:39:13.580 Cause that's a, that's a lot of, a lot of my issues are like that.

00:39:16.060 Yeah.

00:39:16.620 Where I'm like, he, Pete can't do that.

00:39:18.820 Like I can't, I can't.

00:39:20.260 Oh, that's interesting.

00:39:21.200 And then I can, I like, I like prove myself wrong and I'm not who I thought I was.

00:39:25.160 Oh, and that's scary to not be who thought you were.

00:39:27.780 Yeah.

00:39:28.080 Cause that's the person that I, whoever that person is, whatever there is of them, that's

00:39:31.580 what I've known.

00:39:32.360 Yes.

00:39:33.040 And that's my, and that you're comfortable in that.

00:39:35.220 Yeah.

00:39:35.700 Even if it's traumatic or you're depressed, like I was so, I'm so afraid to be happy.

00:39:41.080 Yeah.

00:39:41.460 Cause it's uncomfortable.

00:39:42.600 Dude, there was a time, this was like a year ago.

00:39:44.360 It's funny you're saying some of this, man.

00:39:45.620 And thanks for thinking about it with me.

00:39:47.040 No, of course.

00:39:48.560 Yeah.

00:39:48.920 The time like a year ago, I was thinking, uh, if I don't want to feel like, I don't

00:39:55.140 even know who I'd be if I was happy.

00:39:56.380 And if I was, I would leave all of these feelings that I've always known so much that 0.95

00:40:02.240 are like the best fucking friends, you know? 0.95

00:40:04.460 Yeah. 0.98

00:40:04.900 And it would be like, I almost didn't even did, man, I don't want to go live like that.

00:40:09.020 Cause I'll desert these, whether they're lies or truths, whatever they are, they're

00:40:14.420 probably all in somewhat of cloaks or masks, but I don't want to desert them. 0.98

00:40:18.460 I'm so used to being at this party with this other small group of fucking lonely, perverted, 0.93

00:40:25.200 gambling a little, but you know, that group that I don't even want to go over there, but 0.98

00:40:31.500 still.

00:40:31.960 Yeah.

00:40:32.380 So I, yeah, I think there's a lot, there's probably just the fact of even taking time away

00:40:35.740 to sit and have conversations like this or to be in environments where I'm not, uh,

00:40:40.900 like regulating how I feel with Celsius, which the Amish are using now I've heard.

00:40:46.980 Dude, that was the best.

00:40:48.400 I don't know.

00:40:49.060 I don't know if you were recording, but I mentioned before that, that dude was awesome.

00:40:53.960 And you said you were in contact with him.

00:40:56.080 Yeah.

00:40:56.280 And my question was how?

00:41:00.720 Dude, we got to send you over there to see that guy.

00:41:03.000 I would love to hang with that dude.

00:41:05.120 Sometimes like, I don't know when I watched it one, I thought it was really cool.

00:41:08.740 You did that cause you switch it up.

00:41:10.200 You'll have like an Oscar actor, then an athlete, then like this Amish kid. 1.00

00:41:16.040 Um, but it made me like appreciative for like what I get to do and what we get to do and

00:41:21.900 what we, some things I take for granted.

00:41:24.040 Oh yeah.

00:41:24.620 When he was just like stoked to like getting a Corvette with like two chicks and he's

00:41:29.680 like, that was like my whole life.

00:41:31.640 And I'm like, oh, it was pretty fast too.

00:41:34.980 Yeah.

00:41:35.380 Press the pedal.

00:41:36.380 Yeah.

00:41:36.700 So it made me super reflective.

00:41:39.680 Like, and like the one, I thought he was adorable.

00:41:42.520 Yeah.

00:41:42.720 He's nice.

00:41:43.300 Yeah.

00:41:43.600 Nice.

00:41:43.960 And like a very honest and earnest, but I also was just like, man, I got to start, 0.99

00:41:48.600 stop, like taking shit like that for granted. 0.99

00:41:52.160 Yeah. 0.99

00:41:52.480 I think a lot of that just comes into gratitude, you know, and having that, if we can mask,

00:41:56.620 if we can just try to get that as part of our days, you know, I struggle with that,

00:41:59.740 but I think that's it too. 0.99

00:42:00.740 You know, your serotonin must be so fucked. 1.00

00:42:02.840 Like you're operating at such a crazy level, dude, you're interviewing the fucking president. 1.00

00:42:07.320 Like you get to do shit, uh, every day that is someone's like, if I get to do that once 1.00

00:42:13.100 in my life, like that's my whole life. 0.98

00:42:15.020 Yeah.

00:42:15.260 You're living that every day.

00:42:16.480 So it's like that the crashes, it's hard.

00:42:19.680 Well, you too, man.

00:42:21.460 I mean, at least you got to date a lot of beautiful women. 1.00

00:42:23.740 I got stuck just interviewing the president, this Amish kid. 1.00

00:42:26.020 I trade, I trade, dude, I trade.

00:42:34.020 I'm not trading him.

00:42:34.980 He's only 16.

00:42:37.400 I will say a funny thing about him.

00:42:41.200 One of my favorite things is I was like, see, do you ever listen to music?

00:42:43.620 He's like, well, we, we do three hymns every day when we get to school.

00:42:46.380 He goes, he was, but every now and then we'll sneak off and listen to some deaf leopard. 0.98

00:42:50.380 Oh, that's awesome, dude. 0.97

00:42:55.040 That's fucking awesome. 0.98

00:42:56.460 And cool for deaf leopard. 0.99

00:42:58.260 That's what I thought, dude.

00:42:59.360 They should do a Amish festival.

00:43:01.160 They should go straight there.

00:43:02.980 Absolutely.

00:43:03.560 Right to the source.

00:43:04.440 Yeah. 1.00

00:43:04.800 Right to the fucking source. 1.00

00:43:06.340 I haven't heard of deaf leopard since Joe Dirt. 1.00

00:43:09.900 Deaf leopard sucks. 1.00

00:43:13.080 But that shit made me laugh. 1.00

00:43:15.220 And he said they listened to some Morgan Wallen. 1.00

00:43:17.180 Who's that?

00:43:17.700 That's and some gunna. 1.00

00:43:18.900 I mean, and gunna. 0.99

00:43:20.060 Yeah.

00:43:20.380 That's I would pay to see.

00:43:22.380 Bring that up.

00:43:23.520 But also, wait, before you do, the guy on the left in this photo, is that not Bruce Springsteen?

00:43:28.300 Yeah, it is.

00:43:29.320 Obviously.

00:43:30.080 That's Bruce Springsteen.

00:43:32.900 How?

00:43:33.680 Yeah.

00:43:34.640 What do you mean that's not Bruce Springsteen?

00:43:36.760 Who is that guy?

00:43:38.200 I know he's in deaf leopard, but that's Bruce Springsteen.

00:43:40.960 Who is that guy?

00:43:42.000 Google like zoom in.

00:43:42.960 That's that's Bruce Springsteen.

00:43:44.940 Dude.

00:43:46.700 Oh, yeah.

00:43:47.240 It's him.

00:43:47.520 Oh, now it's not as much, but it looked like him for a second.

00:43:51.000 There's David Hasselhoff over there on the right.

00:43:55.080 Do you have footage of him listening to Gunna, dude?

00:43:57.940 Oh, no.

00:43:58.400 But he does have a good quote about it.

00:44:00.260 I would love.

00:44:00.960 You know, what's one of the funny things is Morgan Wallen and I were texting and he's

00:44:04.400 like, man, I think what if that kid did that walk out with me at my concert?

00:44:07.920 Oh, dude.

00:44:08.900 And but he doesn't have an idea.

00:44:10.780 He was going to maybe he I think it was I think it was being considered for Canada.

00:44:15.340 His show in Edmonton last week.

00:44:16.900 But they don't get the Amish don't get identification. 0.99

00:44:20.480 Oh, wow.

00:44:21.760 They're off the map.

00:44:22.980 They don't get like a passport.

00:44:24.460 No, I know.

00:44:25.380 Somebody's like, you have an idea.

00:44:26.340 You have to just draw a picture.

00:44:27.420 He's helping show it.

00:44:28.200 But they have like bursts. 1.00

00:44:30.600 They don't have any of that shit. 0.99

00:44:31.620 They're like off grid like that. 0.99

00:44:33.140 I'm going to get him to come back another time and get a little bit more in depth with

00:44:36.240 him.

00:44:36.340 Dude, he comes.

00:44:36.880 He has a backwards hat. 1.00

00:44:38.000 He has fucking ice on. 1.00

00:44:40.480 He's so different. 1.00

00:44:42.020 He's talking down to you.

00:44:43.640 Like, I would love to see that episode.

00:44:47.280 He's so full of himself, dude. 1.00

00:44:50.220 Wearing a fucking Ricky Williams jersey. 1.00

00:44:53.540 He has a tattoo on his back. 1.00

00:44:55.480 This butter don't churn on him.

00:44:57.620 Don't churn on me.

00:44:59.340 Yeah, don't churn on me.

00:45:00.740 Don't churn on me, dude.

00:45:02.440 Let's play this.

00:45:03.200 Yeah, he got to get a couple of those.

00:45:05.000 Like a couple get her done.

00:45:06.180 A couple like.

00:45:07.020 Yeah, we have to get him.

00:45:07.800 A couple Hawk Tua sort of statements.

00:45:09.680 You know what I mean?

00:45:10.640 So he can sell his own merch out in the Amish country out of his hat.

00:45:13.640 Pulling out merch out of the hat.

00:45:15.220 That'd be fire. 0.91

00:45:16.000 Or she sold those hats. 1.00

00:45:16.920 What music do you guys listen to?

00:45:18.480 I know you said in the beginning there's some different sometimes.

00:45:20.260 People will sneak in some Def Leppard.

00:45:22.080 But if not, do you guys just sing a lot?

00:45:23.680 Is there a lot of Amish songs and dancing as well or no?

00:45:26.660 In our community, there's not really any dancing.

00:45:28.880 There's, like, the only music, songs that are really louder would be, like, German hymns.

00:45:36.140 And sometimes we, like, sneak out on the weekends and stuff.

00:45:39.380 Listen to some Soulja Boy or something?

00:45:41.100 Yeah.

00:45:41.720 Like Def Leppard, Bon Chovy.

00:45:46.100 Bon Chovy.

00:45:47.020 A lot of Amish, like, rock and roll.

00:45:49.120 And then, I guess, house EDM music.

00:45:50.940 And then also, like, a lot of country, like Garth Brooks.

00:45:53.520 So, everything.

00:45:54.420 Mark and Wallen.

00:45:54.780 So, we crank up Spotify.

00:45:57.080 We also listen to, like, a little bit of rap stuff.

00:45:59.280 Like, Amish Paradise is, that's a pretty good song.

00:46:02.320 Amish Paradise.

00:46:03.040 Yeah.

00:46:04.040 Who sang that?

00:46:05.380 Weird Al Yankovic, I did.

00:46:06.820 Oh, did he?

00:46:07.660 That makes perfect sense.

00:46:08.800 That's brilliant.

00:46:09.360 Yeah.

00:46:09.780 Amish Paradise, that's a pretty, I love that song.

00:46:12.160 That's a banger, huh? 0.98

00:46:13.180 It is a banger.

00:46:14.200 Yeah.

00:46:14.600 He looks a little bit mad there, but it was a pretty good song.

00:46:17.940 It's like me liking a song that just is called 9-11.

00:46:20.960 And then, also, like, I like to listen to a little bit of, like, rap stuff, too.

00:46:24.960 Oh, yeah?

00:46:25.460 Yeah, like, gonna.

00:46:26.480 A little bit of, uh, gonna.

00:46:27.980 Oh, you listen to some gonna?

00:46:29.100 Yeah.

00:46:29.560 Like, uh, like, I don't really listen to what he says.

00:46:32.220 I looked at the lyrics, like, a couple times, and, like, there are, there's, the lyrics

00:46:36.880 aren't the best, but, like, I like the lyrics. 0.99

00:46:39.360 Shit, they got gonna, dude. 0.97

00:46:40.000 It sounds very melodic. 1.00

00:46:41.100 He's a vibe, yeah.

00:46:42.040 That's good.

00:46:43.100 That's dope, dude.

00:46:44.400 That's good.

00:46:45.120 That kid rules.

00:46:46.520 He does rule, man.

00:46:47.940 You know what's funny, man?

00:46:49.080 Even you saying that about him, it's like, anyone I think about, like, the worst thing,

00:46:54.440 I think, is, like, about drugs, addiction, that sort of thing.

00:46:59.720 And it could be, like, I'm in, like, group, like, SLAA.

00:47:02.880 Like, I'm in all, like, I'm in a lot of different groups, you know, like, intimacy disorder 0.95

00:47:06.440 type shit, like, connectivity disorder, you know, like, which probably some of it stems 0.98

00:47:13.040 from just, like, watching porn and growing up like that. 0.99

00:47:14.800 But any addiction stuff, it takes you away from, like, just good moments in life, right?

00:47:20.620 Yeah.

00:47:21.080 It takes you away from, like, the mornings where you get to meet up and meet with a friend

00:47:25.080 for coffee, or you get to work out and feel good about yourself walking out, or you get

00:47:29.220 to text a friend in the morning and say, hey, have a great day, right?

00:47:31.920 Or you get to sit with somebody like that who's just figuring out the world. 0.99

00:47:35.020 And you're like, don't jerk off, don't jerk off, don't jerk off, don't jerk off. 0.99

00:47:37.300 Yeah. 1.00

00:47:37.720 Yeah. 0.99

00:47:38.300 And then you jerk off, and then you can go hang out with yourself. 1.00

00:47:40.240 Oh, that's the fucking worst, dude. 1.00

00:47:41.820 No, it's tough, dude. 1.00

00:47:42.760 When you feel like everybody knows you've been jerking off. 0.99

00:47:45.280 Yeah. 0.99

00:47:45.960 Yeah.

00:47:46.180 That's the worst.

00:47:46.640 It's like smoking weed where you're like, everyone knows I'm high. 0.99

00:47:49.020 Everyone knows I just jerked off. 0.98

00:47:50.520 Yeah. 0.88

00:47:50.840 Because I'm so relaxed.

00:47:52.480 Do you keep up with it when, are you more into the meetings and stuff when you're like, 0.99

00:47:58.580 fuck, I'm like tweaking? 0.78

00:48:00.500 Or do you do it both regularly and when you're like? 0.99

00:48:04.020 Oh, if I'm having tough times or not having tough times, I'm always to go to meetings.

00:48:07.500 Cool.

00:48:07.940 Yeah.

00:48:08.380 Meetings have always been kind of a thing for me, I think.

00:48:12.300 Do you have a, do you have, I'm sure, I don't know if you feel this way, but sometimes

00:48:15.960 you're in a meeting and you're like, some of these dudes just like to talk.

00:48:20.340 Yeah.

00:48:20.760 You know, where you're like, oh, this guy's here.

00:48:23.040 Yeah.

00:48:23.480 And he's going to tell that story, and it's so long.

00:48:26.840 Yeah.

00:48:27.200 And it means so much to him, and it's pretty mid compared to anything I've ever done.

00:48:32.500 It's not, it's not to diminish his stuff, but like, yeah, there's some meet, there's

00:48:37.100 some meeting like warriors where you're like, okay.

00:48:39.800 Yeah.

00:48:40.260 I got it.

00:48:41.340 Yeah.

00:48:41.600 One dude would play that song, This Little Light of Mine.

00:48:44.000 Have you ever heard that during his shares or whatever?

00:48:45.880 I never saw it, but I know that song.

00:48:47.880 This little light of mine, I'm going to let it shine.

00:48:50.760 But he would put that really low on his phone while he would share at a meeting, dude, and

00:48:53.860 people would be like.

00:48:54.660 Oh, dude.

00:48:56.260 That's tough. 0.98

00:48:57.520 So some of that shit was crazy, but then that's when I'm recognized, oh, I have, I'm 0.98

00:49:01.480 impatient with people, and this is a practice for me to just sit here and be patient. 0.99

00:49:05.680 Right.

00:49:06.140 You know?

00:49:07.340 Yeah.

00:49:07.900 But the best is being. 0.99

00:49:08.840 Also, that's annoying as fuck. 0.99

00:49:10.700 Yes. 0.99

00:49:11.120 Yes.

00:49:11.580 But you have to find the balance.

00:49:13.880 Yeah. 0.98

00:49:14.800 Because that is, that sucks. 0.99

00:49:17.000 Yeah. 0.97

00:49:17.160 I don't want you to think you're acting out of character, like, I need to be a better person.

00:49:20.860 That sounds like it's miserable. 0.68

00:49:22.160 Yeah.

00:49:22.800 And sometimes he would even do the city can't hold us, whatever that song is.

00:49:26.640 Yeah.

00:49:27.160 But soon we go back.

00:49:28.760 Oh.

00:49:29.200 It was a whole thing.

00:49:30.420 Yeah.

00:49:30.640 The city can't hold us.

00:49:32.660 Who cares? 0.99

00:49:33.580 Have you been jerking off or not? 0.99

00:49:39.900 It's Raymond's turn to share. 1.00

00:49:41.980 Let's fucking keep it moving, dude. 1.00

00:49:44.260 Sometimes you're like, fuck. 1.00

00:49:45.740 But then you're like, I'm impatient. 1.00

00:49:49.380 And that's why I'm probably not in a, probably why I'm not, I have not in a relationship.

00:49:53.140 I'm just impatient, you know, or like those types of things, you know?

00:49:57.100 Oh, it's Macklemore.

00:49:58.100 Sorry, dude.

00:49:58.420 It's Macklemore.

00:49:58.840 I love Macklemore, too.

00:49:59.960 I love Macklemore, too.

00:50:01.460 I hope he drops a bagger suit.

00:50:03.280 Yeah, dude.

00:50:03.380 We miss him.

00:50:04.160 Bro, get with the Amish, bro. 1.00

00:50:06.120 Oh, he'd be perfect for that.

00:50:07.240 That would be perfect. 0.86

00:50:08.540 That would be sick.

00:50:09.500 The Macklemore revival in Amish country.

00:50:12.440 Bro, if Macklemore hit up the Amish, dude.

00:50:15.140 Dude, that's an untapped market.

00:50:16.880 This hay bale can't hold us.

00:50:19.980 This yellow fever can't hold us.

00:50:22.660 Do they get diseases out there?

00:50:23.780 I don't even know.

00:50:24.400 Well, they don't have doctors, right?

00:50:25.420 They just have a guy that's like...

00:50:26.720 The bishop?

00:50:27.400 Yeah.

00:50:28.460 That's what he says all the time.

00:50:29.700 Do people drop like flies in Amish country?

00:50:31.680 People don't die that much.

00:50:32.720 There's no depression.

00:50:33.420 There's no ADHD out there.

00:50:35.120 Bro, they're living, they're...

00:50:37.260 How big is the town?

00:50:39.180 Like, is it a mile?

00:50:40.960 That's a good point.

00:50:41.780 Because I imagine it just looks like a Back to the Future 3 set.

00:50:49.600 Says mercantile?

00:50:50.800 Yeah, just like six houses and dirt, you know?

00:50:55.460 I think you're right.

00:50:56.860 Right?

00:50:57.540 He gave a tour of his house the other day, somebody said, when his parents were out.

00:51:00.960 Not out of town, but they were in another district.

00:51:03.060 Is that it right there?

00:51:03.980 Oh, that's the Back to the Future set.

00:51:05.100 Yeah.

00:51:05.360 I feel like it looks like that, dude.

00:51:08.060 It has to.

00:51:10.060 He's setting up an Airbnb over there.

00:51:12.240 Did you...

00:51:13.620 Once you started to feel better, did that create a space for you?

00:51:17.920 Because I know you're having a child.

00:51:19.180 You have a child yet?

00:51:19.940 I'm having a child.

00:51:20.840 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:51:21.240 A boy?

00:51:22.600 We have not disclosed.

00:51:24.540 But you do know, though?

00:51:25.760 Oh, we know.

00:51:26.160 Okay, got it.

00:51:26.600 Yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:51:27.880 But yeah, coming soon.

00:51:29.820 Dropping a baby soon.

00:51:30.840 Okay.

00:51:31.440 Yeah. 0.85

00:51:31.880 I'm fucking thrilled, dude. 0.82

00:51:33.500 That's cool. 0.97

00:51:34.180 It was...

00:51:35.020 Was it hard to get to that place?

00:51:36.460 Do you think you'd have been able to get there if you didn't get into sobriety or those

00:51:40.840 sort of things or get into the recovery, like that sort of environment?

00:51:44.320 Like, did that adjust any of the way that you were, like, thinking about having a family

00:51:49.020 or relationships or anything?

00:51:50.460 So, thank God that I'm sober and where I am.

00:51:56.660 I wish I had more time.

00:51:57.920 I don't think anybody's ever like, I'm ready.

00:51:59.680 I wouldn't know, but I wish I had more time of sobriety because it's only been, like,

00:52:07.480 a year and change.

00:52:09.860 But I'm very grateful that it happened now and with the person with Elsie because, you

00:52:17.400 know, in other relationships or when I was, you know, I was a drug addict and, you know,

00:52:24.840 very mentally deranged. 0.74

00:52:26.940 But, like, that was my goal. 0.69

00:52:28.720 Like, I need to have a kid.

00:52:30.420 I need to get married.

00:52:31.580 Like, because that's how I grew up.

00:52:32.580 Like, all my aunts and uncles got married at, like, 21.

00:52:35.720 And they knew each other since grammar school.

00:52:38.740 And, like, they had three kids by 26.

00:52:42.240 Oh, that's fire department stat.

00:52:43.940 Yeah.

00:52:44.360 Yeah.

00:52:44.820 Blue collar. 1.00

00:52:45.740 Meeting a burn unit and fucking... 1.00

00:52:47.400 Yeah. 1.00

00:52:47.960 Yeah.

00:52:48.220 So, like...

00:52:49.140 A couple skin grafts and then we're having one.

00:52:50.600 Yeah.

00:52:51.120 Yeah.

00:52:51.320 You know?

00:52:51.720 Yeah.

00:52:52.120 Like, every music video.

00:52:53.720 Like, you know?

00:52:55.760 But I was so not ready.

00:52:59.100 I was not...

00:52:59.740 I didn't even know...

00:53:00.360 I still don't really know who I am.

00:53:01.880 I think I'm learning. 0.95

00:53:03.640 But there was no fucking way that that was possible. 0.92

00:53:08.760 And I almost think that's why it didn't happen because I was like, I need to do this. 0.97

00:53:12.580 I have to do this.

00:53:14.380 And, you know, no one wanted to do that with me.

00:53:18.760 Like, you know?

00:53:20.340 Like, you know?

00:53:21.460 But I think I knew that.

00:53:23.000 And that's why it was like...

00:53:24.920 And then I just...

00:53:25.860 Then I just was... 0.97

00:53:26.820 I stopped dating and I was like, I need to fucking get better. 0.71

00:53:33.540 And I need to, like, be in a place where I could even have a healthy relationship. 0.92

00:53:37.820 And, like, if that comes, great.

00:53:40.100 It's like, you can't, like...

00:53:41.860 You can't go into stuff with, like, this...

00:53:43.800 I got to...

00:53:44.400 Like, that's...

00:53:44.920 First of all, it's a lot of pressure on your partner.

00:53:47.700 It's a lot of pressure on you.

00:53:49.240 And you're, like, kind of setting yourself up for failure.

00:53:52.100 And it's like, you know, that was just, like, my whole upbringing was, like, that's how it works.

00:53:57.660 So I think it was, like, kind of backwards for me, especially in this business.

00:54:01.500 That's not how that works.

00:54:02.680 Yeah.

00:54:03.120 You know?

00:54:03.780 Because people have options.

00:54:05.620 You know?

00:54:06.080 Yeah.

00:54:06.480 When you're growing up in a small town, it's like, there's these four girls you could pick from.

00:54:10.420 Yeah.

00:54:10.700 Like, this is who I went to school with, you know?

00:54:13.500 So I'm really grateful it happened now.

00:54:18.260 And I wasn't looking for a relationship or looking to, you know, obviously I wanted to,

00:54:23.700 but I wasn't looking to have a baby.

00:54:25.360 And it all just kind of happened at once.

00:54:27.160 And it's been, like, awesome.

00:54:28.920 Dang.

00:54:29.140 Yeah, I'm, like, relieved it's her. 0.81

00:54:31.520 And just, it's, yeah, I'm fucking excited, dude.

00:54:34.700 It's awesome. 0.83

00:54:35.440 And it's also, like, selfishly, like, I get to be unselfish.

00:54:39.320 Like, I'm not the focal point of my life anymore.

00:54:42.340 Where it's, like.

00:54:43.540 So sick of myself. 0.99

00:54:45.140 I'm fucking exhausted. 0.99

00:54:46.960 Like, I get, like, when I was. 0.99

00:54:48.140 We were exhausted of you just as people.

00:54:49.600 Yeah.

00:54:50.040 No, I get it.

00:54:50.880 Like, now I, like, I get it.

00:54:52.740 Like, I was.

00:54:53.620 Like, I do.

00:54:54.460 I'm joking.

00:54:54.880 No, I'm serious. 0.86

00:54:55.560 I was just, I was just, I would be, like, yeah, I'd fucking, I'd be annoyed, too. 0.60

00:54:59.580 Like, I didn't like how, I didn't think that's how I was. 0.72

00:55:03.580 And I think anybody that knows me knows that's not.

00:55:05.720 Oh, no.

00:55:06.060 I was totally just joking.

00:55:06.800 But I think there's, you see people's faces so much.

00:55:09.460 I just think, like, that's even how I feel, dude.

00:55:11.040 I'll see a social media.

00:55:11.940 I'll be, like, God, somebody burned me down.

00:55:14.280 I just, like.

00:55:15.540 It's relentless.

00:55:16.260 What else do we have to, like.

00:55:17.720 It's, I still think it's too much.

00:55:19.240 Like, you know, I'm amazed by people who could, you know,

00:55:23.380 who are super famous and do amazing work that just, like,

00:55:27.620 you only see them when they're working.

00:55:29.680 Yeah.

00:55:30.000 And there's not, like, random articles, like,

00:55:31.960 these two guys hung out or he went to a Knicks game.

00:55:34.660 It's, like, I'm so envious of people that are able to, you know,

00:55:38.240 separate, you know, that sort of life.

00:55:41.620 But, yeah, it's tough, though. 0.99

00:55:43.160 It's tough because they need shit to write about all day 0.99

00:55:46.220 because our minds are so, you know, every two hours you forget 0.99

00:55:50.020 and then you want to read something else.

00:55:51.440 So, like, I think it's tough.

00:55:53.600 It's tougher to be, like, someone's going to be,

00:55:56.240 oh, it's so hard to be a celebrity.

00:55:58.660 No, it's okay, dude.

00:55:59.760 But, like, it's tougher.

00:56:01.440 It's life.

00:56:02.040 It's tougher now.

00:56:03.580 And, you know, celebrities.

00:56:05.520 Well, you should just be able to hide.

00:56:06.680 Remember, the only things we knew were Richard Gere was, you know, 0.99

00:56:09.520 starting a pet store in his ass or whatever. 0.99

00:56:11.580 Yeah. 1.00

00:56:12.420 And what else?

00:56:13.640 But then you see one of his movies and you're like, I don't care.

00:56:15.920 Yeah.

00:56:17.220 Yeah.

00:56:17.500 He's good.

00:56:20.440 And he's handsome. 0.99

00:56:22.120 Hey, I'll even watch him do a little Dr. Doolittle.

00:56:26.320 Bro, that would have been a great sketch, dude.

00:56:29.840 If he just owned it, I bet he would have been able to beat that

00:56:33.820 if he just did SNL and played Dr. Doolittle.

00:56:36.920 But what a crazy story.

00:56:38.800 That's so, like, that's one of, there's so many stories where I'm just like,

00:56:41.460 how did this ruin someone's life?

00:56:43.420 Like, there's rumors that, like.

00:56:45.760 They're great stories. 0.99

00:56:46.760 Like, Ron Stewart drank so much cum, his stomach needs to be pumped. 0.99

00:56:51.320 Yeah, yeah, yeah. 0.99

00:56:51.980 And I was like, dude.

00:56:52.920 I do, yeah, yeah.

00:56:53.960 I was like, that's. 1.00

00:56:55.080 But when you're in high school, you're like, oh, yeah, fucking idiot. 1.00

00:56:58.500 And then you're like 30 and you're like, that's not even possible, man. 1.00

00:57:01.520 Yeah, dude.

00:57:02.180 Where do you even get that? 0.97

00:57:03.520 Yeah, there's no amount of cum in the world that you could. 0.98

00:57:08.500 I wouldn't think. 0.63

00:57:09.440 I don't know.

00:57:10.500 I don't know.

00:57:10.800 Like, if you had a lot, it looks like, I don't know.

00:57:13.280 I don't know.

00:57:13.380 I've only seen somebody have a little.

00:57:14.840 Yeah.

00:57:15.540 Yeah. 0.98

00:57:16.560 Like, where are you getting all this cum from? 0.98

00:57:18.700 Well, that's another thing. 0.99

00:57:19.640 That's another thing.

00:57:20.680 I don't know.

00:57:21.300 But yeah, I remember just hearing.

00:57:22.440 And now it has microplastics in it, a lot of it.

00:57:24.700 Yeah.

00:57:26.080 That's the craziest thing.

00:57:27.300 It's not non-GMO cum. 0.86

00:57:28.700 Yeah, dude.

00:57:29.600 Yeah. 0.99

00:57:29.960 Our cum's even bad in America. 0.98

00:57:33.460 You know, I'm not home a lot. 0.89

00:57:35.680 You know, I can't keep a plant alive at the moment.

00:57:37.940 But when I am home, my bedroom is like my sanctuary.

00:57:42.720 You know, it's a sacred spot for sleep.

00:57:45.480 Thankfully, I have a Helix Sleep Mattress.

00:57:49.560 God, I like it.

00:57:55.900 feeling good.

00:57:58.080 In fact, I like mine so much, I got two of them.

00:58:00.780 I put one of them in the guest room over there in case mom wants to come and just launch

00:58:05.240 some of her dirty dreams into that thing. 0.83

00:58:07.940 Because honestly, sleep matters more to me than ever, especially when I'm on the go.

01:00:04.520 like, did you go to like certain types of therapy that would help you get through the

01:00:09.640 stuff of like, or what did you learn about, I need them for me to feel all right, right?

01:00:14.640 Like, do you think any of that actually adjusted?

01:00:17.520 So like, it got to a point where like, here's the problem with going to therapy for like tabloid 0.98

01:00:23.160 shit. 0.98

01:00:23.660 They're like, your therapist is like, yeah, I don't know. 1.00

01:00:27.020 Right.

01:00:27.380 Like, I don't, you're part of like a very small group of people.

01:00:31.420 And then I would, what really freaked me out was I like, I would call Sandler or like

01:00:35.180 Stiller or like, you know, I was like, Hey, when you, when you were like young and

01:00:38.900 sound like, I don't know about it.

01:00:40.780 I never, I never really got that.

01:00:43.420 Yeah. 0.99

01:00:43.820 Well, you're dealing with sucks. 0.99

01:00:44.900 You know what I'm like? 1.00

01:00:45.580 Oh fuck. 1.00

01:00:46.180 I'm so alone in this dude. 1.00

01:00:48.800 And, um, like when you call the goats and the big, big dogs and they're like, I don't

01:00:55.300 know. 1.00

01:00:55.420 Fuck it. 1.00

01:00:55.740 So it became a, like, it got to the point where I like, wouldn't go outside and like 1.00

01:01:01.140 I would stay inside and then these articles would keep coming up and like, it's always

01:01:05.120 like a source close to be, and I'm like, I don't even have friends anymore.

01:01:09.280 I'm like, how, who are these people?

01:01:10.940 And then it got to a point where I was just like, I am not doing anything.

01:01:15.040 This is running my life.

01:01:16.940 Whether I am happy or go out or not, this is still going to happen. 0.98

01:01:22.320 I might as well like go fucking have fun. 0.99

01:01:25.420 Like who the fuck cares? 0.96

01:01:26.700 And then what really helped me was I would put someone else's name in the title of the 0.98

01:01:30.580 article and see if I cared.

01:01:32.440 Yeah.

01:01:33.060 You know, I'd be like, you know, so-and-so like Hugh Jackman, so-and-so, so-and-so. 0.99

01:01:36.480 I'm like, oh, I don't really give a fuck. 0.99

01:01:38.000 Yeah. 0.99

01:01:38.120 You know, but when it's you, you're like, everybody's reading this.

01:01:41.520 Everybody, when they look at me, this is what they think.

01:01:43.980 And it's like.

01:01:44.740 It's not true. 1.00

01:01:45.360 No one reads that shit. 1.00

01:01:46.760 That's the truth really. 1.00

01:01:47.660 No one, literally no one reads that shit except for like people in our shit. 1.00

01:01:52.320 And the people that write it and the people that still give a fuck about like you're like 1.00

01:01:55.660 a bus driver. 0.83

01:01:56.820 Like they just like want to see you do the thing they like that you do. 0.98

01:02:00.360 Like they want to see you in a movie or they want like no one's like fucking no one has 0.98

01:02:04.200 time for that. 0.99

01:02:05.100 But we're in this like bubble where it's like we think all this shit is like matters. 0.99

01:02:10.300 Well, I think that's a scary thing about Hollywood. 0.98

01:02:11.900 Scary thing that always kind of scared me about Hollywood and that sort of environment is

01:02:15.140 it feels like they build you up and then they can all it's this cycle, right?

01:02:18.840 They can't wait.

01:02:19.560 Right.

01:02:19.700 And it feels like it's dirty, but it's just the most opportune cycle.

01:02:23.100 Every moment of it.

01:02:24.200 There's a possibility for everything.

01:02:25.660 Right.

01:03:58.640 Yeah.

01:03:59.100 Even like the, you know, like I know it's different, but like the thing with that Hawk

01:04:02.480 to a girl was so sad.

01:04:04.060 Like, I remember just being like, this is sad.

01:04:06.600 Yeah.

01:04:07.480 Like, she's not, you know what I mean?

01:04:10.060 What's going on here?

01:04:11.020 She's jerking or something.

01:04:13.280 She was kind of hypothetically BJ, BJing a man or something on the interview.

01:04:18.380 And then they got her into a meme coin or something.

01:04:20.940 I was like, what?

01:04:21.420 Yeah. 1.00

01:04:21.520 What the fuck? 1.00

01:04:22.200 She was like this sweet girl that's like, everyone fell in love with her because like, 1.00

01:04:26.500 she's like, you know, kind of normal and like, just cares about pets.

01:04:29.840 And everyone's like, this girl is actually cool.

01:04:31.560 You know?

01:04:32.240 Then does like one thing that didn't go the way everybody wanted it to. 0.99

01:04:36.080 And like, she doesn't know how to fucking run crypto. 1.00

01:04:38.580 Like, I don't even know what, fuck. 1.00

01:04:40.320 I don't even know what crypto is, dude. 1.00

01:04:42.340 Are you kidding me? 0.99

01:04:43.540 If I can't hold it physically, like I don't fuck with it. 0.99

01:04:46.180 Yeah, dude. 0.99

01:04:46.640 And the fact that people were like, yeah. 1.00

01:04:48.320 Fuck you. 1.00

01:04:48.920 Like this girl, this is who you're going to, everything going on in the world and fuck this 1.00

01:04:52.820 girl. 1.00

01:04:53.780 Are you kidding?

01:04:55.000 Like, leave her alone. 0.99

01:04:55.920 Yeah. 0.99

01:04:56.080 She had a pretty good blow job recipe. 1.00

01:04:57.880 I thought, you know? 0.98

01:04:58.800 Yeah.

01:04:59.060 I mean, people are just, I laughed, you know, this is the enemy.

01:05:04.980 It's so crazy.

01:05:05.840 It's crazy, dude.

01:05:06.540 But I think it's, I think as if you can get on the right side of your own self, right?

01:05:11.100 Then you can be in control or you can at least have some awareness.

01:05:14.420 And that's where I think like the value is these days is the relationship you can have

01:05:20.200 with yourself is more important than ever.

01:05:22.000 And just understanding of what's going on, that this is how it is.

01:05:26.340 And so let me be in control of myself and not just at the whims of how do other people

01:05:31.740 feel about me?

01:05:32.340 Just all these little things of, you know, like all these addictive thing, you know, it's

01:05:35.740 like if the more you can get control over yourself, the better chance you have, you

01:05:40.320 know?

01:05:40.720 There's also a part of you though, that has to go through it to understand a little bit.

01:05:44.880 Like, you know what I mean? 1.00

01:05:46.100 Like I was also super judgy, like growing up, like fuck that dude. 0.99

01:05:50.280 Like this is an example I love to use. 0.99

01:05:52.200 You remember when Christian Bale like yelled at that dude on the Terminator set?

01:05:55.220 Yeah.

01:05:55.620 So I was like 12 years old when that audio came out. 1.00

01:05:58.820 You want me to trash your fucking lights? 0.99

01:06:00.580 You know, it's distracting. 1.00

01:06:02.300 Right. 1.00

01:06:02.880 And I remember hearing that and being, I was 12, I was like, what an asshole. 1.00

01:06:09.960 Fuck Christian Bale. 1.00

01:06:11.460 You're a Batman, dude. 1.00

01:06:12.420 You're yelling out like a lighting dude.

01:06:15.140 10 years later, I made one movie. 0.99

01:06:16.860 I was like, what the fuck did that lighting guy do? 0.98

01:06:19.440 Yeah. 0.99

01:06:21.480 To make Christian Bale so mad that he even knew who he was.

01:06:27.660 Like, and then you, and then I did some digging and it's like, the guy was in the shot.

01:06:33.480 Yep.

01:06:33.940 He was on his phone and Christian Bale was trying to cry to a Terminator.

01:06:38.520 He's a 35 year old man trying to cry to a robot.

01:06:41.400 Right.

01:06:41.740 In a bad.

01:06:42.080 These days it's easy, but this is 20 years old.

01:06:43.640 In a bad movie.

01:06:45.200 Like.

01:06:45.500 Yeah, that's horrible.

01:06:46.720 Like he's trying to cry halfway through a bad movie. 0.99

01:06:50.020 And there's a lighting guy fucking around in a shot. 0.98

01:06:52.560 The lighting guys over there. 0.99

01:06:53.720 Yeah.

01:06:53.940 Doing these things.

01:06:54.880 Yeah.

01:06:57.260 So it's like, he was right.

01:06:59.740 But like the world don't know that.

01:07:01.300 Cause not the world has not made a movie.

01:07:03.220 Yeah.

01:07:03.580 Or like dealt with any of that stuff.

01:07:05.500 There's no way to win.

01:07:06.680 Right.

01:07:06.960 There's no way to win the thing where everybody likes you.

01:07:09.520 It's all just a trap, you know?

01:07:11.000 Yeah.

01:07:11.720 And they could smell it on you.

01:07:13.180 And we don't know what people are going through.

01:07:14.780 You don't know what Christian Bale is going through.

01:07:16.980 Yeah.

01:07:17.080 He's so good.

01:07:17.960 He's unbelievable.

01:07:19.340 It's also just like, I remember, you know, before it sounds shady to say, but before you're

01:07:23.380 at a certain level or in this thing, like, I remember I just be like, wow, that guy's 1.00

01:07:26.940 a fucking dick. 1.00

01:07:27.620 Like you see like a video of someone being like, Hey, can I take a picture of it? 1.00

01:07:31.180 And they're like, Hey man, I'm like eating or like whatever.

01:07:33.180 And it's like, maybe that guy's like fighting with someone or like, maybe he's having a bad

01:07:37.880 day. 0.94

01:07:38.380 Maybe his grandpa is sick or maybe he's just fucking hung over or there's so many reasons. 0.97

01:07:44.420 Like think about how you feel every day, you know? 1.00

01:07:47.160 So we're just so quick to be like, Oh, that guy's a fucking asshole. 1.00

01:07:50.820 Yeah. 1.00

01:07:51.020 It's like, maybe he's tired, dude.

01:07:52.980 Maybe he's tired.

01:07:54.240 Yeah.

01:07:54.820 Maybe he's has a, maybe he has a back.

01:07:56.320 Maybe it's one of those, those things that are supposed to be working out your abs on.

01:07:59.640 Yeah.

01:08:00.560 Yeah. 1.00

01:08:01.320 Maybe he's in the fucking zone, dude. 1.00

01:08:03.000 Yeah. 1.00

01:08:03.320 Maybe he's locked in, dude.

01:08:04.840 He's locked in, dude.

01:08:06.800 Oh, so the tour, let me find out the dates you're going on too.

01:08:10.500 I don't want to keep you too long, man.

01:08:19.680 thanks.

01:08:20.040 Just like a warm energy that feels hopeful.

01:08:23.200 And, uh, it's not judgmental.

01:08:33.620 Like throughout, I've, I've, I don't know if you remember, but I remember you used to live

01:08:37.180 in LA.

01:08:37.560 We used to run into you all the time at the improv.

01:08:39.880 And I, as I was a kid and getting older and you were always so, so kind and cool.

01:08:44.480 And, oh, thanks.

01:08:45.740 Yeah.

01:08:46.020 And especially at times where, uh, certain people weren't or like the, the popular thing 1.00

01:08:50.600 was to be like, fuck that dude. 0.99

01:08:52.160 And you were just always awesome. 1.00

01:08:53.580 I always appreciated that.

01:08:54.660 So, well, thanks Pete.

01:08:55.760 That's nice of you.

01:09:07.980 One night he saw me do a set at the last factor and he tweeted about it.

01:09:11.520 And it was like the first person that was like, like, I love Simon's sense of what's

01:09:16.640 cool.

01:09:16.960 Right.

01:09:17.320 He just, cause he's his own thing.

01:09:19.900 Yeah.

01:09:21.160 Yes.

01:09:21.540 Just like, he was like, this guy's act is cool.

01:09:23.580 Something that just made me feel like, Whoa.

01:09:26.920 And that was like, it's still one of the highlights of my whole life.

01:09:29.500 And then, um, yeah, I knew you guys have spent some time together over the years.

01:09:34.160 Oh, he's the best dude.

01:09:47.920 Red rocket. 0.85

01:09:48.720 That movie was bonkers.

01:09:49.760 That's the first movie premiere I ever went to was to see his red, to see, well, I guess

01:09:53.380 you actually see his red rocket.

01:09:55.000 Yeah.

01:09:55.300 You kind of do.

01:09:56.040 There's a wiener.

01:09:57.240 I hope it's a, it's an actor wiener or whatever. 0.87

01:09:59.580 An actor wiener is hilarious. 1.00

01:10:01.240 But I don't care if it's a damn woman's wiener that we're paying for. 1.00

01:10:05.640 Yeah. 1.00

01:10:06.060 So, oh yeah.

01:10:06.840 That was fun, dude.

01:10:07.840 Watching him.

01:10:09.140 Yeah.

01:10:09.400 And also just like, uh, you know, when he got, I remember I cried when, uh, he got that

01:10:13.900 Indy award.

01:10:15.240 Yeah.

01:10:15.620 Like, is it, you, like it, you know, you see actors that are at the top of their game

01:10:19.940 or, you know, very wealthy or, you know, you know, not saying Simon's not, I'm just

01:10:24.920 saying like, you see people were kind of used to that sort of reception and it was like

01:10:29.520 the most honest, if you guys are at home, watch Simon Rex win an Indy spirit award.

01:10:33.900 It is.

01:10:34.120 Pull it up.

01:10:34.600 You get so emotional, dude.

01:10:35.820 Like it means so much to him.

01:10:37.720 And like, you know, he's awesome and stuff, but like, you know, he, he was kind of in,

01:10:42.700 in a certain category.

01:10:44.280 He would self-admittedly say like people, not, not that people didn't take him seriously. 0.99

01:10:48.140 Just like, you're a silly goose sort of guy. 1.00

01:10:50.480 And he is a silly goose. 1.00

01:10:51.620 And he is. 1.00

01:10:52.200 But he found his own. 1.00

01:10:53.180 He felt like even a silly goose fucking can, uh, is full of golden eggs. 0.99

01:10:57.480 You know? 0.99

01:10:57.620 Simon, uh, Simon Baker.

01:11:00.840 Simon.

01:11:01.200 He's a director.

01:11:02.040 Oh, no.

01:11:02.860 Sean Baker.

01:11:03.600 Sean Baker.

01:11:04.220 Jeez.

01:11:04.460 I should, I should probably know that name.

01:11:06.320 Maybe.

01:11:06.780 I don't know.

01:11:07.160 Please put me in your movie.

01:11:07.920 No, he's a really nice guy, but Sean Baker saw, like just saw the magic in him.

01:11:12.820 Yeah.

01:11:13.100 You know what I mean? 0.64

01:11:13.900 Well, the Florida project was way too fucking long too. 1.00

01:11:16.020 I'll say that Sean Baker and I'll say that shit with my chest. 0.99

01:11:18.860 We played a little bit of skitsy voice. 1.00

01:11:21.080 Simon gets it.

01:11:24.540 Okay. 1.00

01:11:27.180 What the fuck? 1.00

01:11:30.180 Thank you, Film Independent, for recognizing my fake penis. 1.00

01:11:35.060 Right away. 1.00

01:11:35.980 Yeah. 0.99

01:11:36.420 Silly goose. 0.99

01:11:37.220 Um, where do I begin? 0.99

01:11:39.440 Uh, Sean Baker.

01:11:45.780 Sean Baker, you took a shot on me.

01:11:47.980 When I could not get a call back for a Geico commercial.

01:11:52.500 I couldn't get arrested.

01:11:54.660 And this man believed in me and took a shot.

01:11:58.640 And I'm so glad I delivered for you, Sean.

01:12:00.800 Truly, you're a genius.

01:12:03.140 Writer, director, editor, casting.

01:12:06.400 He did it all.

01:12:07.160 And he decided to give me a shot and I didn't want to let him down.

01:12:10.240 And here I am.

01:12:11.620 I honestly, my career was in the toilet.

01:12:14.300 I gave up.

01:12:14.840 I moved out to Joshua Tree and said, maybe it's all over.

01:12:18.720 And all of a sudden I get a phone call out of the blue from Sean.

01:12:22.080 And he just gave me a shot.

01:12:23.480 And he called me and said, look, do you trust me?

01:12:27.140 And I've seen his film.

01:12:28.280 So I did trust him.

01:12:30.420 And he said, you're not going to make any money.

01:12:34.120 I'm not going to make any money.

01:12:35.340 We're going to go make a movie real quick.

01:12:38.040 And we made something special on a very low budget with a 10-person crew.

01:12:43.420 I want to thank everybody from the crew of the film.

01:12:46.080 Everyone in the cast, Susanna Saund, my co-star.

01:12:48.920 Thank you so much.

01:12:50.000 I want to thank Brie Elrod, my other co-star in the Love Triangle.

01:12:53.360 Every local actor from Texas who was a first-time actor, they blew me away.

01:13:01.080 This was like one of those magical things that happens once in a lifetime.

01:13:06.080 And I don't even, I'm still in shock.

01:13:08.560 We shot this during COVID.

01:13:11.300 Even finishing this movie was ambitious.

01:13:14.700 And I'm reeling from the whole experience.

01:13:19.160 So also, you know, thank you to Film Independent.

01:13:24.100 Everybody, thank you, 824.

01:13:26.380 Thank you, Film Nation.

01:13:28.440 Thank you, LePact.

01:13:30.100 Thank you, Focus.

01:13:31.480 That's good, huh?

01:13:32.040 Universal.

01:13:32.680 His ending is crazy. 1.00

01:13:34.160 At the end, he just goes, I don't give a fuck anymore. 0.99

01:13:36.360 And all I want to do, I don't care about fame or money. 0.99

01:13:39.220 I got caught in that trap a long time ago.

01:13:41.060 I've been in this business 25 years.

01:13:43.240 And it's not about anything except doing good work.

01:13:46.120 I just want to continue to surprise people and do good work.

01:13:50.160 And that's really what this is all about.

01:13:53.060 This movie was made for a million dollars with a 10% crew. 0.99

01:13:56.440 I got caught up in that shit a long time. 1.00

01:13:58.320 I'm just happy to be. 1.00

01:14:01.840 He's crispy, dude.

01:14:03.080 Oh, that's so crispy, baby.

01:14:04.940 I've met so many great people through him.

01:14:08.060 Dude, super tapped in.

01:14:09.740 And if people know him, it's like, oh, okay.

01:14:11.700 Oh, yeah.

01:14:12.220 He's kind of like that trustworthy.

01:14:14.160 He's like the elbow.

01:14:14.920 It's like, okay, then I'll let these two parts of it connect.

01:14:18.300 Absolutely. 0.99

01:14:19.020 And he's like, you know, he dates back fucking. 0.96

01:14:23.200 He'll be like, yeah, I was hanging with. 1.00

01:14:24.800 You're like, how the fuck do you know? 1.00

01:16:13.700 You know, Halloween, we all dress up together.

01:16:15.480 Oh, it's fun. 0.98

01:16:16.160 Because now Halloween will be cool and not like sad, you know, that we're all being whores 0.97

01:16:28.780 Tight shit, man. 1.00

01:16:30.160 Hell yeah, dude. 1.00

01:16:41.300 Boo.

01:16:42.360 Boo.

01:16:43.240 How does Amy feel? 0.90

01:16:44.660 Does she, does she weigh in on it?

01:16:46.780 My mom would have this kid with me if she could. 0.99

01:16:50.500 My mom has been fucking starved for a grandchild. 1.00

01:16:55.240 She's already, she's talking to my girl's belly being like, I'm Amy. 0.99

01:16:59.480 I'm Amy.

01:17:00.420 She's like, that's Grandma Amy.

01:17:01.720 I'm Amy.

01:17:02.580 I'm like, you got to back off.

01:17:03.720 That sounds a little cultural appropriation as well, a little bit.

01:17:06.440 You got to back off a little bit.

01:17:08.360 She's overly excited.

01:17:09.760 It's also, it's, it's sweet because I feel guilty about my mom giving up dating and just

01:17:16.720 having a life in general to raise me and my sister alone. 0.99

01:17:19.720 And I didn't realize it until I got older, like, oh shit, like she was kind of the goat. 0.99

01:17:23.620 Like she, she really cared. 0.98

01:17:25.480 And I feel like since me and my sister moved out and we're getting older, like she's, she's

01:17:30.520 kind of, I don't want to talk in any sort of way about, but I feel like she's kind of

01:17:35.140 bored and a little lonely because I've, I've been like, you should date.

01:17:40.340 And she's like, nah, your dad was my guy.

01:17:41.820 And I'm like, oh, they don't make you, you anymore.

01:17:44.280 This woman, you know what I mean?

01:17:45.760 And I just, I'm, I'm very excited to, for her to have not purpose, but just like to be

01:17:50.920 excited about something and like, yeah, baby something, you know, and raise, raise something.

01:17:57.480 So I'm, I'm, I'm really excited to see, see her in that, in that grandma role.

01:18:01.760 It's going to be cool, dude.

01:18:03.220 I'm excited for Amy.

01:18:04.440 Yeah.

01:18:04.700 I'm stoked.

01:18:05.420 So it's going to be fun.

01:18:06.320 Yeah.

01:18:06.580 And it just grow the family.

01:18:07.620 It's cool.

01:18:08.140 You guys deserve it.

01:18:33.420 I was just thinking real fast about, um, that's a good movie, man.

01:18:41.860 It's so cool to think about it.

01:18:43.400 God, I saw that the other, I saw it like a couple of weeks ago.

01:18:45.820 I remember Chris Tucker was in it, ran. 1.00

01:18:47.520 You're like, Oh shit. 0.99

01:18:48.360 It's Chris Tucker. 0.99

01:18:49.280 Dude.

01:18:49.460 That movie is so good.

01:18:51.020 Um, Oh no.

01:18:52.460 The movie frequency.

01:18:53.520 Have you ever seen it?

01:18:54.880 Jim Caviezel, Dennis Quaid.

01:18:56.340 Yeah.

01:18:56.660 Dude.

01:18:57.100 I got one of my favorite movies.

01:18:58.680 It makes me think of you whenever I see it, bro.

01:19:01.280 Yo, I've been waiting to talk frequency with someone my entire life.

01:19:05.020 So I love that movie so much for obvious reasons, but here's, what's really funny.

01:19:11.180 2002, that came out in what?

01:19:12.600 98 or 2000.

01:19:13.960 Right.

01:19:14.220 Yeah.

01:19:14.400 Good movie.

01:19:14.960 So it's 2002 and my grandma for Christmas got me the frequency VHS or DVD.

01:19:22.420 And she was like, you're going to love this movie.

01:19:25.040 And I watched it and I was just like, why would she give this to me?

01:19:29.120 Like it was not a movie at like eight years old, six months after my dad died that I was

01:19:36.000 like prepared to see, but it's literally the Pete Davidson fantasy.

01:19:39.280 Yeah. 0.77

01:19:40.100 So guys, you got a Jim Caviezel is, uh, uh, is fucking in the present and he's 30 years 0.71

01:19:48.060 old and his dad's dead and he was a fireman and his dad died like 20, 30 years ago or whatever. 0.76

01:19:54.760 And, uh, he gets this old CB radio and there's this weird thing going on in the sky and he

01:19:59.980 just like plugs it in one night cause he's sad.

01:20:02.100 And then his dad is on the other side 20 years ago talking, they talk to each other and 0.97

01:20:06.940 they solve a crime and they fucking, and he comes back at the end and he changes the 0.97

01:20:13.620 life trajectory. 0.99

01:20:14.540 And I'm just like, Oh my God.

01:20:16.600 Yeah.

01:20:16.840 I hope it happens.

01:20:20.700 I really do.

01:20:21.780 Dude.

01:20:22.100 There's a, there's a legit part of me.

01:20:24.360 That's like, sometimes I'll be on eBay and I'll be like CB radio working, working, not

01:20:31.120 project working.

01:20:32.600 I don't want a project, but yeah, it's my fantasy right there.

01:20:36.360 Yeah.

01:20:36.780 That'd be dope. 0.98

01:20:37.680 Or at least let me remake it.

01:20:38.940 You know, I've been seeing like, they're making like the show about nine 11 and I'm

01:20:42.180 like, call me up, dude.

01:20:44.560 I should be grandfathered into those projects.

01:20:47.400 I should get, I should get a piece of those.

01:20:49.340 The power of, uh, but it's the power of filmmaking and stuff, man, this movie filled in little

01:20:53.940 spots for, I think anybody who is, who's, who had a father, didn't have a file.

01:20:58.340 Just it fills in little pieces.

01:20:59.980 Right.

01:21:00.240 And I think that's what art does for, for people, man.

01:21:02.380 I think you're going to be able to do a lot of that for people in the future.

01:21:04.740 If you want, man, it's also so exact.

01:21:07.320 It's so good.

01:21:08.100 You ever have a, do you have a movie like that where you're like, this is about me.

01:21:11.660 This is my dream.

01:21:12.480 I kind of think like family man.

01:21:14.300 Sometimes that's a movie I love the most.

01:21:16.020 Yeah.

01:21:16.380 With Nicholas Cage at holiday movie, the Christmas movie.

01:21:18.760 And I don't even know why, but that's like the, and then a league of their own about lesbianism

01:21:22.840 or whatever in the forties or whatever.

01:21:24.440 I love zero dark 30.

01:21:26.100 I haven't seen zero dark 30. 0.97

01:21:27.180 Oh dude. 0.98

01:21:27.480 I like jerk off to it. 0.99

01:21:28.700 Oh, that's insane. 0.99

01:21:29.460 It's about seal team six, taking out Osama Bin Laden. 0.98

01:21:32.960 It's fucking awesome, dude. 0.98

01:21:34.180 We'll show them, you know? 0.95

01:21:35.600 Yeah.

01:21:36.080 But this one thing that I did, I saw Dennis Craig one time and I said, man, frequency

01:21:40.700 is, I think one of my favorite movies ever.

01:21:42.980 And he goes, he goes, it's one of my favorite movies.

01:21:44.920 Dude, see, I told him at the Montreal comedy festival.

01:21:47.260 Yeah.

01:21:47.640 Yeah.

01:21:48.060 He's like cool.

01:21:48.800 And like out and about.

01:21:49.760 So cool.

01:21:50.040 And I ran into him and I was like, Hey, like I had like tears in my eyes.

01:21:52.520 I was like, you, like you changed my life.

01:21:54.360 But then he was like, Hey man, I love that movie too.

01:21:56.140 I think that I was like, yes, yes.

01:21:58.760 Pretty cool.

01:21:59.200 Yeah.

01:21:59.480 He's awesome.

01:22:12.120 And he just would always be in there at the same time.

01:22:16.680 Ah, definitely was having a tough time.

01:22:18.100 He actually got in a fight in the parking lot on the way out.

01:22:20.360 That I believe. 0.96

01:22:21.780 Someone said frequency sucks. 0.86

01:22:23.100 And he was like, I'll save Pete Davis's life. 0.73

01:22:30.660 It was a, I don't know, it was some sort of a dispute in the parking lot, but it was

01:22:36.060 a true story and God bless him.

01:22:38.240 And Randy Quaid, we almost had him, me and Spade wrote a movie and we almost had Randy

01:22:41.780 Quaid in it, but he couldn't get back into the country.

01:22:43.680 Yeah.

01:22:43.840 What's going on?

01:22:44.440 He's on like the run from the authorities.

01:22:46.480 It's a lot of things we're looking to have him on.

01:22:48.080 So maybe he'll come in and talk to us about it.
